Testing blood glucose
Farbe: P 021 – Prüfmittelnummer: 201
During the time in which End is displayed the meter performs a
self-test, except when the meter has turned off automatically
because you failed to eject the test strip. Always eject the test
strip following a test in order to allow the meter to perform the
self-test.
i
After you have ejected the test strip, wait for the meter to turn off
before inserting a fresh test strip for a new test.
If you insert a test strip when End is displayed, the meter turns
off regardless. When you next turn the meter on again, error mes-
sage E-4 (see page 174) is displayed, irrespective of whether you
use a test strip to turn it on or press the Þ button. Push the
ejector to remove the test strip and discard it, or press the Þ
button to turn the meter off again.
i
You can dispose of used test strips with your regular household
waste.
Do not keep used test strips in a test strip container together with
unused test strips. This may render the unused test strips unus-
able. Test strips that are stored incorrectly may produce incorrect
results. Incorrect results can cause the wrong therapeutic deci-
sion to be taken and so lead to serious adverse health effects.
