Caution:
If all the results you get on testing three times continuously are
within the range printed on the test strip, the meter and test
strips are working properly and you may use them for your blood
glucose test.
Control Solution Testing
Step 2
Shake the CareSens Control
Solution vial before each test.
Remove the cap and squeeze the
vial to discard the first drop. Then
wipe the tip with a clean tissue
or cloth. After the
symbol
appears on the display, apply the
solution to the narrow edge of the test strip until the meter
beeps. Make sure the confirmation window fills completely.
Step 1
Insert a test strip into the meter’s test strip port,
with the contact bars facing upwards.
Gently push the test strip into the port until the
meter beeps. Be careful not to break the strip
while pushing it in.
The
icon will be displayed on the screen.
Step 3
A test result will appear after the meter counts
down from 5 to 1.
After your control solution result appears on
the display, press for 3 seconds till the ‘check’
icon appears on the display.
When the ‘check’ icon is displayed, the result
is not stored in the meter’s memory and is not
included in the 14-day averages.
Step 4
Compare the result displayed on the meter to
the range printed on the test strip vial.
The result should fall within that range.
Used strips should be discarded safely in
disposable containers.
Note:
The meter may switch off, if the blood sample is not applied
within 2 minutes of the
icon appearing on the screen.
If the meter turns off, remove the strip, reinsert, and start
from step 1.
Caution:
• If the results you get are not within this range, the meter and
test strip may not work properly. Then, stop using the meter
and contact the nearest i-SENS representative.
• The range printed on the test strip vial is for the CareSens
Control Solution only. It does not have any connection to
your blood glucose level.
