Warning
Before starting to take blood samples, make sure without fail that you have read the enclosed in-
structions for use, “Taking blood samples”. These instructions describe how to prepare and take a
blood sample correctly.
Note
• Do not add blood later if the device does not start measurement. Remove the test strip and end this
test. Use a new test strip.
• The device switches itself off if the test strip has already been inserted into the device but no blood
is added to the test strip within two minutes. Briefly remove the test strip and reinsert it so that the
device automatically switches itself back on.
• Contact Customer Services if you are unable to cover the test strip in blood correctly.
5.1 Evaluating the result
As soon as the gap is sufficiently filled with blood, the device performs the blood glucose measure-
ment. The blood glucose monitor counts down for approx. five seconds.
The measured result is then shown on the display.
Read the measured value. For explanations and measures for the measured values, see chapter
“5.2 Evaluating measured blood glucose values”. If an error message is displayed, read chapter
“9. What if there are problems?”
