Inserting the code strip

1 Hold the code strip with thumb and index
finger in the white area located at the end
of the strip. Do not touch the printed area
(behind the black bar).
2 Insert the code strip smoothly into the test
strip guide up to the stop in the direction
of the printed arrows.
Withdraw it immediately. Leave the
measurement chamber flap closed during
this procedure.
If the meter reads the barcode information
correctly, successful coding is confirmed
with a short beep (if beeper is activated).
The three-digit code number (which is also
printed on the reverse side of the code strip
and on the test strip container) appears in the
display.
If the code number has a leading zero (e.g.
039), the meter might not display the leading
zero.
If any problems occur during reading, an error
message will be displayed (see Troubleshoot-
ing). In this case repeat reading the code strip
after a few seconds.
The flashing test strip icon prompts you to
insert the test strip.
