5.4 Function check with control solution
The control solution is used to test the complete blood glucose monitoring system. It is
used to check that the monitor and test strips operate together correctly and whether the
test is conducted correctly. You should perform a control solution test if you suspect that
the measuring device or test strips may be faulty, or if you repeatedly receive unexpected
blood sugar results. Also test the measuring device if it has been dropped or damaged.
The control solution is available separately. When performing the control solution test,
please follow the additional instructions in the control solution user guide.
CAUTION
Never use control solution from other manufacturers. It will be impossible to
check that your Beurer blood glucose monitor operates correctly with other
control solutions.
Testing with control solution
1 Hold the monitor with the display facing you.
2 Insert a test strip into the monitor with the contacts first. Make sure that the
front of the test strip is facing you (see "3.3 Test strips" page 11).
3 The monitor switches on automatically and shows consecutively the initial
display, the ambient temperature, and the code number. The monitor is ready
for a test as soon as the flashing blood drop symbol
6 is displayed.
4
Check the code number. If the numbers are not identical, remove the test strip
and code the monitor (see "4.3 Checking code number (coding)" page 14).
5 Press the M button to switch to control mode. In control mode test results are
not saved and your statistics are not skewed.
6 “CTL” is shown on the display.
7 Shake the control solution well before use. Unscrew the cap and squeeze out
one drop. Wipe the first drop away and squeeze out another drop.
8 Do not apply the drop directly to the test strip, otherwise the control solution
remaining in the vial tip may be contaminated by contact with the test strip.
First place the drop on your fingertip or on a clean surface. Then hold the drop
to the slot for taking blood on the test strip. The solution is sucked into the
slot. Wipe the tip of the vial with a clean, dry paper towel.
9 When the slot is filled with solution, the monitor carries out the test. The moni-
tor counts back for approximately six seconds. The result is shown in the
display.
10 Check that the test result is within the specified range of the control solution.
The result range is printed on the test strip container.
