Control Solution Testing
Step 1
Insert a test strip into the meter's test strip port,
with the contact bars facing upwards.
Gently push the test strip into the port until the
meter beeps. Do not force the test strip into
the meter.
The
symbol will show up.
Step 2
Press and hold the ▶ button for 3 seconds till the
appears on the display.
Step 3
Shake the KetoSens Control
Solution bottle well before each test.
Remove the cap and squeeze the
bottle to discard the first drop.
Then wipe the tip with a clean
tissue or cloth. Dispense a drop
of control solution onto a clean
non-absorbent surface. It helps to
squeeze a drop onto the top of the cap as shown. After the
symbol appears on the display, apply the solution to the narrow
edge of the test strip until the meter beeps. Make sure the
confirmation window fills completely.

applied within 2 minutes of the
screen. If the meter turns off, remove the strip, reinsert, and
start from step 2.
Step 4
A test result will appear after the meter counts
down from 8 to 1.
The result is stored in the meter's memory but it
is not included in the averages.
Step 5
Compare the result displayed on the meter
symbol
to the KetoSens Control Solution range
printed on the test strip box.
The result should fall within that range.
Used strips should be discarded safely in
appropriate containers.
Caution:
The range printed on the test strip box is for the KetoSens
Control Solution only. It has nothing to do with your blood
β-Ketone level.

The KetoSens Control Solution can be purchased separately.
