Lifescan OneTouch Basic Basic Blood Glucose Monitoring System - Manual (Page 48)

If the following message
appears on the display, your drop of
blood was too small, or smeared, or the
test strip was not pushed all the way
into the test strip holder. Repeat the
test with a new test strip and enough
blood to cover the entire test spot.
■ Remove the test
strip from the
meter and look
at the test spot. It
should still have a
wet, shiny drop
that completely
covers the test
spot. If the blood
sample has a dull, dry appearance,
you may not have applied enough
blood, or you may have smeared it.
