Blood glucose

Action

High blood glucose level

on an empty stomach, 

above 100

 

mg/dL 

(5.6

 

mmol/L)

2 hours after a meal

over 140

 

mg/dL 

(7.8

 

mmol/L)

If this high value persists 2 hours 

after your last meal, this may in-

dicate hyperglycaemia (high blood 

glucose). Seek medical attention 

to coordinate any measures, if ap-

plicable.

High blood glucose level, 

possibly ketones 

over 240

 

mg/dL 

(13.3

 

mmol/L)

Perform a ketone test. For this pur-

pose, seek medical attention.

Very high blood glucose 

level

over 630

 

mg/dL 

(35.0

 

mmol/L)

Take another measurement using a 

new test strip. If the display is the 

same as before: seek medical as-

sistance immediately.

5.6 Functional check using control solution  

The control solution is used to test the entire blood glucose monitoring system. This helps to deter-

mine whether the monitor and the test strips are working optimally together and whether the test is 

being performed correctly. 

Perform the control solution test if you suspect that the monitor and/or the test strips could be faulty 

or if you have repeatedly measured unusual blood glucose values. Also test the monitor if it has been 

dropped or is damaged. The control solution is available separately. For the control solution test, 

please observe the additional notes in the instructions for use for the control solution.

  Important 

•  Do not use control solutions by a di

ff

erent manufacturer. Correct functioning of your monitor can 

only be tested using Beurer control solutions ( LEVEL4).

•  Control solution measurements: When using the device, specialist personnel must follow statutory 

guidelines. 

•  Do not apply any blood samples or control solutions to the test strip before inserting it in the mon-

itor.

Performing a functional test using control solution

  Warning 

To obtain correct results, the monitor, the test strip and the control solution must be the same tem-

perature. For the “Functional test using the control solution”, the temperature is to be between 20°C 

and 26°C.
