WARNING
• Shake the control solution well before testing.
CAUTION: Use only CONTOUR NEXT control
solution (Normal, Low, and High) with
your

results.
You should perform a control test when:

• You think your meter may not be working properly.
• You have repeated, unexpected blood sugar results.
WARNING
• Do not calibrate your continuous glucose monitoring device
from the control result.
• Do not calculate a bolus based on a control result.
CAUTION: Do not use expired materials.
Using expired material can cause inaccurate
results. Always check the expiration dates on
your test materials.
Normal, Low, or High control solutions are available and sold
separately if not included in the meter kit. You can test your
C
ONTOUR NEXT ONE meter with control solution when the temperature
is 15°C–35°C.
Always use C

incorrect results. If you need help locating C
ONTOUR NEXT control
solutions, contact Diabetes Care Customer Service. See the back
cover for contact information.
