About the Test Strip
With your system, you can

(at the base of the thumb)
and forearms. Testing
with the system requires
a small sample size; 0.5 μL
of blood, about the size of
a pinhead.
CAUTION: Discard used
test strips properly.
IMPORTANT: Use test strips only once.
IMPORTANT: Only use the test strips specifi ed on the inside
front cover with this system.
Contact Bars:

up, into the meter’s test
strip port.
Visual Fill Window:
The window will turn
red when enough blood
has been applied or blue
when enough control
solution has been applied.
Sample Area:
Apply blood or control
solution to the tip of the
