APPLICATION OF THE BLOOD
PROCEDURE TO TEST GLUCOSE
Read carefully the instructions for use of the strips that you want to use to perform the measurement.
1.
Press the power button after inserting the data-chip. The code of the data-chip
that appears on the display has to match the one printed on the strips vial. If it
doesn’t match please contact the Customer Service.
2.
Wash your hands and dry them thoroughly.
3.
Take out a strip from the vial and insert it in the device, with the printed or
coloured part facing up. You will hear a click and the device will emit an
acoustic signal (“beep”).
3a.
Perform the finger pricking with the lancing device and a sterile
lancet. Apply a drop of blood on the side of the strip that comes out
of the device. Let the strip aspirate the blood until to see the moving
segments on the display and you will hear an acoustic signal (“beep”).
If the blood volume is not enough the measurement does not start.
