2. Apply control solution
Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before use. Squeeze out a
drop and wipe it off, and then squeeze out another drop and place it on
the tip of the vial cap. Hold the meter in an angled position so that the
absorbent hole of the test strip touches the drop. Once the confirmation
window fills completely, the meter will begin counting down. To avoid
contaminating the control solution, do not directly apply control solution
onto the strip.
3. Read and compare the results
After the meter counts to 0, the result of the control solution test will
appear. Compare the result with the range printed on the test strip vial.
The result should fall within this range.
Out-of-range results
If you continue to have test results fall outside the range printed on the
test strip vial, the meter and strips may not be working properly. Do NOT
test your blood. Contact customer service or place of purchase for help.
