Chapter 2: Control Testing
Why Run Control Tests?
Control tests ensure that both the meter and the test strips are working properly and giving reliable results.
You should run a control test when:
• The meter is new.
• You open a new box of test strips.
• You leave the cap off the test drum vial before
using the drum.
• You want to check the performance of the meter
and test drum.
• You drop the meter.
• CTRL flashes in the meter display window.
• Your test results don’t agree with the way you feel.
• You want to make sure you’re performing tests
correctly.
