2  Initial steps before testing
2.1  Checking the contents
Check that your monitoring kit is complete. The package contents are 
listed on the box.
If anything is missing, please contact your local customer support and 
service centre. Contact details are given at the end of Instructions for 
use.
2.2  Checking the unit of measurement for blood glucose
Blood glucose results can be displayed in two different units (mg/dL or 
mmol/L). Consequently, two different versions of the same meter are 
available. Check that your meter displays the unit you are accustomed 
to. The type plate on the back of your meter indicates which unit your 
meter uses. If you do not know which is the right unit for you, ask your 
doctor.
 The unit that your meter displays cannot be changed. If the 
wrong unit is printed on the type plate, please consult your dealer 
or pharmacy. Working with the wrong unit can cause you to mis-
interpret the test results.
