Hold the input gap (at the tip of the test strip) to the drops of control solution until the gap is
completely filled and the measuring device in the display starts counting backwards.
When the gap is sufficiently filled with solution, the device performs a measurement. The de-
vice counts down for approx. five seconds. The measured result is then shown on the display.

Check whether the result is within the specified range of results for the control solution. This
range of results is printed on the test strip box.
