Control Solution Testing
Step 3
Shake the KetoSens Control
Solution bottle well before each test.
Remove the cap and squeeze the
bottle to discard the first drop.
Then wipe the tip with a clean
tissue or cloth. Dispense a drop
of control solution onto a clean
non-absorbent surface. It helps to
squeeze a drop onto the top of the cap as shown. 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. Do not force the test strip
into the meter.
The symbol will show up.
Step 2
Press and hold the
▶
button for 3 seconds till the
symbol appears on the display.
• If your symptoms are inconsistent with the blood β -Ketone
test results and you feel that the meter or test strips are not
working properly,
• If you drop or damage the meter.
Note:
The KetoSens Control Solution can be purchased separately.
Contact Customer Service: 1-800-429-5001 Mon–Sat,
9 am–9 pm EST.
Caution:
The range printed on the test strip box is for the KetoSens
Control Solution only. It has nothing to do with your blood
β -Ketone level.
Step 4
A test result will appear after the meter
counts down from 8 to 1.
The result is stored in the meter’s memory
but it is not included in the averages.
Step 5
Compare the result displayed on the
meter to the KetoSens Control Solution
range printed on the test strip box.
The result should fall within that range.
Used strips should be discarded safely in
appropriate containers.
Note: The meter may switch off if the control solution is
not applied within 2 minutes of the symbol appearing
on the screen. If the meter turns off, remove the strip,
reinsert, and start from step 2.
