Switching the meter on/off
When a test- or check strip is inserted into the strip slot, the
meter turns on automatically. You can also switch on the meter
manually by pressing the S-button longer than 3 seconds.
The meter will operate a quick self check (all characters and sym-
bols appear in LCD display) and continue with the start-up mode.
In first line of the display you will see month, day, time and code
888 appear on the LCD display. In the middle three dashes will
flash („- - -„) and in the bottom line the unit of measurement
(mg/dL or mmol/L) and a flashing test strip symbol will be vis-
ible. At this stage you can:
• enter the insulin setting mode by pressing the scroll wheel (the
display will read „UNIT“ in the lowest line)
• enter the memory mode „MEM“ by turning the scroll wheel, to
show or delete stored test results
• enter the setting mode by pushing the S-button at least for 6
seconds
• power off the meter by pressing the S-button once.
