Taking A Test; Testing Your Blood Glucose; Preparing For A Blood Glucose Test - OneTouch Verio Flex Owner's Booklet

3 Taking a test

Testing your blood glucose

Preparing for a blood glucose test

NOTE: Many people find it helpful to practise testing with
control solution before testing with blood for the first
time. See page 58.
Have these things ready when you test:
OneTouch Verio Flex™ Meter
OneTouch Verio® Test Strips
Lancing device
Sterile lancets
NOTE:
• Use only OneTouch Verio® Test Strips.
• Unlike some blood glucose meters, no separate step to
code your OneTouch Verio Flex™ System is required.
• Testing must be done within operating temperature
range (6-44°C).
• Make sure your meter and test strips are about the
same temperature before you test.
• Keep test strips in a cool, dry place between 5°C and
30°C.
