4. Press the left (◄) button to mark the test as a control solution test. Once the
left (◄) button is pressed, the control solution symbol will appear on the display.
It indicates that a drop of control solution can be added.
5. Shake the control solution bottle well. Squeeze it gently and discard the first
drop. If the tip clogs, tap the tip gently on a clean, hard surface. Then shake
again and use. Squeeze out a second small drop on a clean nonabsorbent
surface. Touch the sample tip of the test strip to the control solution drop. If the
audio option is turned on, the meter will beep. It indicates a sufficient sample
has been applied.
Notes:
• Do not apply control solution to the test strip directly from the bottle.
• If you applied the control solution sample but do not see the starting of the
count down, you may reapply a second drop within 3 seconds.
6. Once a sufficient sample has been applied, the meter display will count down
from 3 to 1. Then the result and a control solution symbol will be displayed on
the screen. The control solution test results should be within the control range
(CTRL 1). The control range (CTRL 1) is printed on the test strip vial (or on the
foil pouch). This means that your blood glucose monitoring system is working
properly. This also means that you are performing the procedure correctly.
Test results are displayed in mg/dl by default when sold in the United States.
Note: The control solution range is the expected range for the control solution
results. It is not a recommended range for a blood glucose level.
