Check Measurement 2.7
If you suspect obtained results are inadequate, use the supplied check strips to examine the status of
the instrument. The check strip container holds two gray strips and two white strips. Use a pair of
white and gray strips for check measurement at a time.
Prepare: Gray and white check strips (one for each color), blower brush, alcohol, cloth,
tissue paper, and protective gloves.
Wear protective gloves to prevent exposure to pathogenic microbes.
Discard cleaning tools and used protective gloves in accordance with local
regulations for biohazardous waste.
IMPORTANT: Do not touch the pad area on the check strips. Use of strips contaminated
by sebum can produce incorrect results.
NOTE: Ensure you have the check strips that came with the instrument. Measuring other test
strips in the check measurement mode can cause trouble or damage to the instrument.
