2 Select AUC Limit, then press ACT. The SET AUC LIMITS screen appears. The default LOW AUC Limit
flashes 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L).
3 Select your Low AUC Limit. The number must be between 40 and 400 mg/dL (2.2 and 22.2 mmol/L).
4 Press ACT. The default High AUC Limit flashes 180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L).
5 Select your High AUC Limit. The number must be between 40 and 400 mg/dL (2.2 and 22.2 mmol/L). It
can be equal to, but not lower than, the AUC Low Limit.
