Control Test
We recommend performing Control Tests to check the
performance of the system.
Control Tests should be performed:
• To practice before using the system for the first time,
• For practice to ensure testing technique is good,
• Occasionally when using a vial of test strips,
• When opening a new vial of test strips,
• If results seem unusually high or low,
• If a vial has been left opened or exposed to extreme
heat or cold, or humidity,
• Whenever a check on performance of the system is
needed,
• If meter damage is suspected (meter was dropped,
crushed, wet, etc.)
Note: It is important to perform Control Tests with more
than one level of TRUE METRIX Control Solution.
Three levels of control solution are available for
Control Tests. Use contact on the cover for more
information on how to obtain control solution.
Ranges printed on test strip vial label are for
Control Test results only and are not suggested
levels for blood glucose. Do not drink control
solution.
