1 Introduction
Thank you for choosing the HemoCue Glucose 201 DM system.
The HemoCue Glucose 201 DM system is a compact, portable, yet versatile, blood
glucose measuring system. It is ideally suited for health care facilities that require central
lab quality values within a few minutes, at the point of care location.
The System consists of the HemoCue Glucose 201 DM Analyzer, the HemoCue 201 DM
Docking Station and the HemoCue Glucose 201 Microcuvettes. The HemoCue Glucose
201 DM Analyzer utilizes whole blood in the determination of the glucose
concentration. The result will either be displayed as a whole blood or a plasma
equivalent result, depending on which system is used. This feature is a factory setting,
and cannot be changed by the user.
This Manual contains step-by-step instructions for the routine use of the HemoCue
Glucose 201 DM Analyzer. For configuration of the analyzer and set-up of the System,
consult the HemoCue 201 DM Reference Manual. Installation of HemoCue DM Docking
Station has been described in HemoCue 201 DM Docking Station Manual.
The HemoCue Glucose 201 DM system complies with the IVD Medical Device Directive
98/79/EC and carries the CE mark.

package insert to attain optimum performance and safety. Any other use of the system than
