TESTING YOUR BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS
Special messages
HI: If your blood glucose test result is above 600
mg/dL (33.3 mmol/L), S will appear on the meter
display. This indicates severe hyperglycemia (high
blood glucose). You should re-check your glucose
level, and if S call your health care professional
immediately.
When your blood glucose test result is above 240
mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L) or reads S, Ç will
appear on the meter display. This message does not
mean that the system detected ketones, but that
testing with a ketone test strip may be advisable.
LO: If your test result is lower than 20 mg/dL
(1.1 mmol/L), T will appear on the meter display.
This indicates severe hypoglycemia (low blood
glucose). You should treat this condition according
to recommendations of your health care
professional.
