Shutting Off Your Meter

port turns off the meter. You can use
the opened foil packet to remove and
discard your used test strip.
2
Discard the test strip properly.
Note:
You may also turn the meter
off by Pressing and Holding the
button. If you do not turn your meter
off or pull the test strip out, the meter
shuts off automatically after 60 seconds.
Understanding Your Result
Compare the control result to the "Expected Results for
Use with Optium or MediSense Control Solutions" range
printed on:
•
The blood glucose test strip instructions for use, for
glucose control solution testing.
•
The blood β-Ketone test strip instructions for use for
β-Ketone control solution testing.
If the control result falls within the range:
What It Means
Your meter and test strips are working correctly.
If the control result
does not
fall within the range:
What It Means
Your meter and test strips may not be working correctly.
What to Do
Repeat the test with a new test strip and ensure the
control solution testing instructions are followed
completely. If the result is still not within the printed
range, contact Customer Service.

Reviewing
Results
What Can Your Meter Show You?
Memory
Your Optium Xceed meter has a memory that stores up to
450 events. This is a combination of control results, your
personal blood glucose and blood β-Ketone results, and
other meter information.
You can review up to 450 of your most recent events on
your meter’s display window.
Glucose Averages
You can view the average of all your blood glucose
results from the last 7, 14, or 30 days. If you marked your
control solution tests, the averages do not include control
solution results. (For more information on marking control
solution tests, see Chapter 6.)
IMPORTANT:
•
To review blood glucose averages, you
must
set the
date and time before monitoring.
•
If you
do not
mark control solution tests, this may affect
your glucose averages.
•
Blood glucose averages
do not
include blood β-Ketone
results, glucose control results, β-Ketone
control results, or results that do not show the
time, month, and day.
•
When there are no previous results or blood
glucose averages to review, the display
window shows three dashes.
