2. Press
until “CTL” is displayed.
With
“
CTL
”
displayed, the meter will not
store your test result in memory. If you
press
again, the
“
CTL
”
will disappear
and this test is no longer a control
solution test.
WARNING:
When doing the control solution test
“
CTL
”
must be displayed so that the test
results will not be stored in the memory. Failure to have the meter in the correct
mode will result in having the control solution test results stored with your actual
blood glucose test results. This will cause an inaccurate analysis of your stored
results.
3. Apply control solution
Shake the control solution bottle thoroughly before use. Squeeze out a
drop onto the tip of the bottle cap and wipe it off using a clean tissue or
cloth. Then squeeze out another drop onto the tip of the bottle cap.
Hold the meter so that the strip is pointing downward and move the
absorbent hole of the test strip to touch the drop. Once the confirmation
window fills completely, the meter will begin counting down.
To avoid contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply control
solution onto a strip or otherwise touch the nozzle of the bottle.
