"HI" and "LO" Messages
The meter can accurately measure blood glucose concentrations between 20 to
600 mg/dL. "HI" and "LO" messages indicate results outside of this range.
If
"HI"
appears
concentration value is above 600 mg/dL. The test should
be retaken to ensure that no mistake was made in the
procedure. If you are certain the meter is functioning
properly and no mistakes were made in the procedure,
and your blood glucose is still consistently measured as
"HI", it indicates severe hyperglycemia (high blood
glucose).
You
professional immediately.
If "LO" appears on the display, the measured
concentration value is below 20 mg/dL. The test should
be retaken to ensure that no mistake was made in the
procedure, and your blood glucose is still consistently
measured as "LO", it may indicate severe hypoglycemia
(low blood glucose). You should treat yourself for
hypoglycemia immediately as recommended by your
healthcare professional.
Precautions and Limitations
• The meter, test strips and other components have been designed, tested and
proven to work together effectively to provide accurate blood glucose
measurements. Do not use components from other brands.
• Use only with whole blood. Do not use with serum or plasma samples.
• Do not use for testing newborns.
• Do not use the meter in any manner not specified by the manufacturer.
Otherwise, the protection provided by the meter may be impaired.
• Very high (above 55%) and very low (below 30%) hematocrit can cause false
results. Talk to your healthcare professional to find out your hematocrit level.
