Limitations:
a) The test strips are used for fresh capillary whole blood samples.
b) DO NOT use neonate blood sample.
c) Not to be used for diagnosis or screening of diabetes.
d) Alternative site testing with this system can be used only during steady-state blood glucose conditions.
e) Measurements from alternative site testing should never be used to calibrate a continous glucose
monitor (CGM) or entered into insulin dose calculators for insulin dosing recommendations.
f) Extreme humidity may affect the results. A relative humidity greater than 85% may cause incorrect
results.
g) The system should be used at a temperature between 50ºF - 104ºF (10ºC - 40ºC). Outside this range,
the system halts.
h) DO NOT reuse test strips. The test strips are for single use only.
i) Red blood cell count (Hematocrit); Hematocrit levels between 20% and 60% will not signicantly
affect the results, Hematocrit levels below 20% may cause higher results, Hematocrit levels above 60%
may cause lower results. If you do not know your hematocrit level, please consult with your healthcare
professional.
j) Altitude up to 10,745 feet above sea level has no effect on readings.
