Glucose Control Solution has three levels available. They are labeled Control
Solution 0, Control Solution 1 and Control Solution 2. Control Solution 1 is
sufficient for most all self-testing needs. If you think your meter or strips may not be
working properly, you may also want to do a level 0 or level 2 test. The ranges for
CTRL 0, CTRL 1 and CTRL 2 are displayed on the test strip vial (or on the foil
pouch). Simply repeat step 4 through 6, using Control Solution 0 or Control
Solution 2.
For confirmation of results, Control Solution 0 tests should fall within the CTRL 0
range, Control Solution 1 tests should fall within the CTRL 1 range and Control
Solution 2 tests should fall within the CTRL 2 range. If the control solution test
results do not fall within the respective ranges, DO NOT use the system to test you
blood glucose, as the system may not be working properly. If you cannot fix the
problem, contact your local distributor for help.
