Your Element

NEO Meter is pre-set to mg/dL as test unit. A wrong test unit will lead
to wrong test result display. Please consult your healthcare professional if you’re not
sure which test unit to use. Without setting the date properly, the average glucose
level and the results in memory will not show proper values. It is recommended to
set the glucose test meter before use and also when new batteries are installed.
2. You cannot test your blood glucose in the setting mode.
3. To turn the meter off during the setup, press for at least 3 seconds.
