Step 6: Apply the blood sample to the test strip
Quickly apply the blood sample to the absorbent hole on the tip of the test strip. Make
sure the confirmation window of the test strip is completely filled with the blood sample,
and remove your finger.

After approximately 5 seconds, your blood glucose result will appear on your mobile

testing and syncing.
Note:
The results obtained from the glucose meter are plasma-calibrated. This helps you and your
physician or other qualified healthcare providers to compare your meter results with laboratory
tests. Refer to the instructions given by your physician or other qualified healthcare providing.
Do not deviate from these instructions on the basis of the result without first consulting your
physician.
Step 8: Discard the used test strip and lancet
Remove the used test strip from the meter using a tissue.
Remove the lancet from the lancing device. (Tip: Prior to disposal, stick
the lancet into the cover that was snapped off earlier in the process.)
Discard the used test strip and lancet properly.
