A dot appears in the small control window on the back of the meter.
This indicates that you have just inserted a test strip drum. When you
perform a blood glucose test, the meter counts the number of test strips
that you have used and displays the number of strips remaining.
Use only test strips that are within the expiry date. Expired test
strips can produce incorrect results. Incorrect results can cause
the wrong therapeutic decision to be taken and so produce ad-
verse health effects. The expiry date is printed next to the symbol
on the container the drum came in.
When all the test strips in a drum have been used up, the dot reappears
in the small control window.
Insert a new drum.
If you do not insert a new drum, the following message appears the next
time you turn on the meter:
End
and the drum symbol are flashing to indicate that the test strip
drum is empty.
