Checking the system with the Finetest Auto-coding Premium control solution
The Finetest Auto-coding Premium Control Solution is used to check that the meter and the
test strips are properly working together to provide you with the most accurate reading.
Note : The Finetest Auto-coding Premium Control Solution is sold separately. Normal and
high level control solutions can be obtained through your local representative (contact details:
see last page).
Control Solution Test can only be used with the Finetest Auto-coding Premium System and
should be used during the following cases:
•When a new vial of test strips is opened.
•Any suspicion that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
•When your blood glucose test results are not consistent with your symptoms, or if you think
they are not accurate.
•If you drop the meter.
•Use routinely to obtain accurate results.
When the control solution is applied to the top edge of the Finetest Auto-coding Premium
Test Strip, you should get results within the expected range printed on the label of the test strip
vial. If the control solution test results fall outside the range, repeat the test. Results that fall out-
side the range may be caused by:
•Error in performing the test.
•Failure to shake the control solution vial well enough (must shake vigorously).
•Failure to discard the first drop of control solution.
•Expired or contaminated control solution.
•Test Strip deterioration.
•Meter malfunction.
•Control solution that is too warm or cool.
