relatively stable trend arrow.

Means

Your glucose is changing gradually, changing at a rate of less

than 60 mg/dL/hr (3.3 mmol/L/hr).

Your glucose is increasing moderately, at a rate between

60 mg/dL/hr and 120 mg/dL/hr (3.3 mmol/L/hr and

6.7 mmol/L/hr).

This icon shows up for Blood Glucose mode test results that

happened when the operating temperature was beyond the

system’s specified operating temperature range and may be

less accurate. Discard the test and repeat another test within

the operating temperature range of the system.
