Comparing Control Solution Results - ReliOn Prime User Instruction Manual

Comparing Control Solution Results

If the result is outside the range printed on the test strip bottle, repeat the test.
One or more of the following may have caused an out-of-range result:
• The meter was not placed in control solution mode before adding control
solution
• The control solution has expired or has been contaminated
• The control solution was stored below 35°F (2°C) or above 86°F (30°C)
• First drop of control solution was not discarded
• The test strip was not stored correctly
• The test strip was used after the expiration date of the bottle
• The test strip bottle was open for more than 90 days (3 months)
• The ReliOn™ Prime meter has been damaged or has malfunctioned
• Contamination due to the tip of the control solution bottle touching the
test strip
Repeat the test, carefully following instructions, using control solution mode
with new control solution or a new test strip, as appropriate. Compare the
result with the range printed on the test strip bottle you are using.
