When a Warning Occurs5.1
A warning occurs when the instrument is asking you to take action to enable measurement of more
samples. For example, you may be requested to add test strips or to dispose of used test strips.
You will be notified of warnings by beeps, and can determine the causes by a displayed warning
code, message, and graphic icon. If running measurement halts due to a warning, you can manually
resume the tests after clearing the cause. No samples are skipped.
5.1.1 From Warning Generation to Remedy
This section describes the procedure from how you will be notified of a warning until how you can
clear it.
1 While measurement is in progress, a “graphic
icon” will appear to notify you that a warning has
occurred.
• Sample aspiration will be suspended.
• The instrument will wait for the ongoing
measurement to complete if there are test strips
reacting with samples inside.
2 Consecutive short beeps sound for about 10
seconds, and a warning code appears along with a
message.
• If a warning occurs while on standby, the
instrument will be brought to this status
immediately.
3 Check the warning code and message, and take the necessary action to remove the cause.
• See “5.1.2 Causes and Remedies” on page 5-3.
4 Press OK .
5 If measurement was in progress, you will be asked whether to resume the sample tests or not. To
resume the tests, press Continue . To cancel them, press Stop .
6 If the warning persists, turn off the power and contact your distributor.
