Checking Your Blood Glucose
90
7
Wait for the reading
1. Do not lift up the strip until you hear 1 beep or see the word
“Checking” on the screen (Figure 7-30). This means you
applied enough blood and the meter is reading your glucose.
2. If after 5 seconds the PDM does not display “Checking,” the
sample may be too small. If needed, add more blood to the
same edge of the strip for up to 60 seconds from the time of
the first application.
The strip-port light turns off when the blood sample is
accepted.
3. The reading is complete when you hear 2 beeps (if
BG sound
is turned
On
) and the PDM shows your reading on the screen
(Figure 7-31).
The time the test takes depends on your blood glucose level.
The higher your glucose level, the longer it takes to get a
result. When your blood glucose level is in the range of 100 to
150 mg/dL, a result appears in an average of 7 seconds.
Do not:
• Press the strip against the test site
• Scrape the blood onto the strip
• Apply blood to the flat side of the strip
• Apply blood to the strip when it is out of the meter
• Put blood or foreign objects into the test strip port
