• The meter reads the strip information
(provided by the barcode on the test
strip) and checks if it matches code chip
information already stored in the meter.
• If you haven’t inserted the code chip yet
or in case of a mismatch, you will be
prompted to insert the correct code chip.
• When the test strip check has been
completed successfully, the meter
indicates that the test strip is warming up.
• Once the warming-up process is complete,
the meter displays the test strip and blood
drop symbols. These symbols and a beep
tone indicate that the meter is ready to
perform the test and is waiting for you to
apply blood.
At the same time, a 180-second countdown
begins. You must apply the drop of blood
to the test strip within this time, otherwise
you will receive an error message.
