Apply and hold blood to 1 sample area of the test strip until:

You see short lines moving clockwise on the display or
•
You hear a beep
This indicates the test strip obtained enough blood and the meter is checking
your glucose level. If a short line does not appear after 5 seconds, the sample may
be too small. You can add blood to the same side only for up to 60 seconds. If the
test does not start after applying blood drop, go to Troubleshooting section.
