The meter will count down from 5 to 1 and
then display the measurement results. The
meter will also beep to indicate that
measurement is complete. Then your blood
glucose level will display on the screen, along
with the unit measurement, and the date and
time of the test.
Blood Glucose results are automatically
stored in the memory. To mark invalid results
and to prevent them from being included in
the 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90-day averages, press
the M and S buttons together. A pound sign
(#) will appear on the display to show that the
result will not be included when calculating
the 7, 14, 30, 60 and 90-day averages. If a
result is marked by accident, press the M
button to unmark the result. After marking the
invalid result with a pound sign (#), press the
S button to confirm the invalid result. After
marking the invalid result, run the test again
with a new test strip.
When the meal marker feature is turned on
and a test result is displayed, mark the result
as "before meal", "after meal", or invalid.
•
Press the M and S buttons together to
display the "before meal marker" symbol,
indicating the result was taken before a meal.
•
Press the M button again to display the
"after meal marker" symbol, indicating the
result was taken after a meal.
•
Press the M button again to display the
pound sign (#), indicating an invalid result.
•
Press the M button again then none of the
above markers will be displayed for the
result.
After deciding the selection, press the S
button to confirm the selection for either
"before meal marker", "after meal marker",
"invalid result pound sign
or none of these
three symbols. If an invalid result is marked,
run the test again with a new test strip.
If an error message appears on the display,
refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide
on page
39. If a "HI" or "LO" error appears on the
display, refer to "HI" and "LO" messages
below.
The meter can accurately measure blood glucose concentrations
between 0.6 to 33.3 mmol/L (10 to 600 mg/dL). "HI" and "LO" messages
indicate results outside of this range.
If "HI" appears on the display, the measured
concentration value is above 33.3 mmol/L (600
mg/dL). The test should be retaken to ensure that
no mistake was made in the procedure. If you are
certain the meter is functioning properly and no
mistakes were made in the procedure, and your
blood glucose is still consistently measured as
"HI", it indicates severe hyperglycemia (high
blood glucose). You should contact your
healthcare professional immediately.
If "LO" appears on the display, the measured
concentration value is below 0.6 mmol/L (10
mg/dL). The test should be retaken to ensure that
no mistake was made in the procedure. If you are
certain the meter is functioning properly and no
mistakes were made in the procedure, and your
blood glucose is still consistently measured as
"LO", it may indicate severe hypoglycemia (low
blood glucose). You should treat yourself for
hypoglycemia immediately as recommended by
your healthcare professional.
