Continue to touch the blood drop to the white
area at the end of the test strip until the monitor
begins the test. The monitor begins the
test when:
•
You hear the beeper, if the beeper is ON.
•
The display window shows the status bar.
•
Then the display window shows the countdown.
Note: Do not
remove the test strip from the
monitor or disturb it during the countdown.
IMPORTANT:
If the countdown
does not start:
What It Means:
You might not have applied
enough blood to the test strip.
What to Do:
•
Apply a second drop of blood to the test strip. Refer
to your test strip instructions for use for the number of
seconds you have to apply a second drop.
•
If the countdown still does not start, or if the number of
seconds you have to apply a second drop have passed,
discard the test strip, turn off your monitor, and try again
with a new test strip.
