How to Test Blood Glucose
1. Remove one test strip from vial and close
vial immediately. Use test strip quickly after
removing from vial.
2.
Insert test strip contact end (blocks facing
up) into the meter test port. The meter
turns on and performs an automatic self-test.
Note: If the test strip has been out of the vial
for too long before testing, an error message
appears after it is inserted into the meter.
Discard the test strip. Use a new test strip for
testing. If the meter does not turn on or an error
code appears, see Troubleshooting section.
3. The display shows the time, animal symbol,
and blinking drop.
Note: Applying a sample drop without fi rst
selecting an animal type will give an error
message (see Error Messages section).
4. Lance test site and obtain a blood drop (see
Obtaining a Blood Sample section).
5. With test strip still in meter, touch the
test strip sample tip to the top of the
blood drop. The blood is automatically
drawn into the test strip.
