The meter will automatically recognize and mark the control result for you. Control

Understand Your Control Test Result
Compare your control test result with the ranges printed on the test strip vial label.
Notes:
If your control test result is out of range:
• Check the expiration dates and discard dates of the test strip and control
solution. Make sure that the test strip vial and the control solution bottle have
not been opened for more than 6 months. Discard any expired test strips or
control solution.
• Confirm the temperature in which you are testing is between 50-104°F.
• Make sure that you stored strip and control solution at 36-86°F, 10-90%
humidity.
• Make sure that the test strip vial and the control solution bottle have been tightly
capped.
• Make sure the test strip was used immediately after removing from the test strip
vial (or the foil pouch).
