Performing a Control Solution Test
To perform a control solution test, you will need: (d), (e) and (f).
1. Insert the test strip to turn on your meter
Wait for the meter to display “ ” and “ ”.
2. Apply control solution (i)
Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before use. Squeeze out
the first drop and wipe it off, then squeeze out another drop and place
it on the tip of the vial cap. Hold the meter to move the absorbent hole
of the test strip to touch the drop. Once the confirmation window fills
completely, the meter will begin counting down.
NOTICE:
To avoid contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply
control solution onto a strip.
3. Read and compare the result
After counting down to 0, the control solution test result will appear
on the display. Compare this result with the range printed on your test
strip vial and it should fall within this range. If not, please read the
instructions again and repeat the control solution test.
With “QC” displayed, the meter will store your test result in memory
under “QC”.
NOTE:
• There is no HCT display function while the meter is in QC mode.
• The control solution range printed on the test strip vial is for control solution
use only. It is not a recommended range for your blood glucose or ketone
level.
• See the MAINTENANCE section for important information about your
control solution.
