Comparing The Control Solution Test Results - i-SENS GM505PAD User Manual

Step 3
The display segments will rotate clockwise on
the meter display and a test result will appear
after the meter counts down from 5 to 1.
After your control solution result appears on
the display, press for 3 seconds till 'check'
appears on the display.
When 'check' is displayed, the result is stored in
the meter's memory but it is not included in the
averages.
Step 4
Compare the result displayed on the meter
to the range printed on the test strip vial.
Test result should fall within that range.
Caution: The range printed on the test strip vial is for the
CareSens Control Solution only. It has nothing to do with your
glucose level.
Note:
The CareSens Control Solution can be purchased
separately. Please contact your authorised i-SENS sales
representative.

Comparing the Control Solution Test Results

The test result of each control solution should be within the
range printed on the label of the test strip vial. Repeat the
control solution test if the test result falls outside of this range.

Situations
• W hen the control solution bottle was
not shaken well,
• W hen the meter, test strip, or the control
solution were exposed to high or low
temperatures,
• W hen the first drop of the control
solution was not discarded or the tip of
the bottle was not wiped clean,
• W hen the meter is not functioning
properly.
• W hen the control solution is past the
expiration date printed on the bottle,
• W hen the control solution is past its
discard date (the date the bottle was
opened plus three (3) months),
• W hen the control solution is
contaminated.
If results continue to fall outside the range printed on the
test strip vial, the CareSens N Test Strip and Meter may not be
working properly. Do not use your system and contact your
authorised i-SENS sales representative.
