4 Drip control solution on surface
Choose a clean surface to carry out the
functional test correctly. Shake the con-
trol solution well before use. Undo the
cap and press two drops next to each
other on the clean surface without touch-
ing them. Use the second drop for the
measurement.
Note
Never apply the control solution straight from the bottle to a test strip. Reason: The remain-
ing solution in the bottle will be contaminated if the top of the bottle comes into contact with
the test strip.
5 Apply drop to the test strip
Hold the input gap (at the tip of the test strip) to the drop of control solution until the gap
is completely filled. When the gap is sufficiently filled with solution, the device performs a
measurement. The device counts down for approx. five seconds. The measured result is then
shown on the display.
6 Evaluate result of functional test
Check whether the result is within the specified range of results for the control solution. This
range of results is printed on the test strip box.
Expected results
At room temperature, the measured values from the test using the control solution should be within
the range printed on the test strip box in approx. 95% of all tests.
Warning
The result range printed on the test strip box applies only to the control solution. This is not a rec-
ommended value for your blood glucose level.
