Operating Instructions
General Testing Procedure
- Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water, then dry completely.
- Insert a glucose or ketone test strip into the meter. The meter will automatically turn on and display a blood drop symbol.
- Use the lancing device to prick the side of your fingertip. Gently squeeze your finger to form a small drop of blood.
- Touch the tip of the test strip to the blood drop. The strip will draw the blood into the meter.
- Wait for the countdown. Glucose readings typically take 5 seconds, while ketone readings take 10 seconds.
- Your result will be displayed on the screen. The meter will automatically store the reading.
- Remove and discard the used test strip and lancet safely.
