Step 3
A test result will appear after the meter
counts down from 5 to 1.
After the 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.
The result should fall within the range.
Used strips should be discarded safely
in disposable containers.
Caution:
• If the results are not within the range on the test strip vial,
the meter and test strip may not work properly. Then, stop
using the meter and contact the authorised i-SENS sales
representative.
• The range printed on the test strip vial is for the VetMate
Control Solution only. It does not have any connection to the
blood glucose level of your dog/cat.

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 the range. Out of range results
may occur in the following situations:
Situations
• When the control solution bottle was not
shaken well,
• When the meter, test strip, or the control
solution were exposed to high or low
temperatures,
• When the first drop of the control solution
was not discarded or the tip of the bottle was
not wiped clean,
• When the control solution is past the
expiration date printed on the bottle,
• When the control solution is past its discard
date (the date the bottle was opened plus
three (3) months),
• When the control solution is contaminated.
If results continue to fall outside the range printed on the test
strip vial, the VetMate Test Strip and Meter may not be working
properly. Do not use your system and contact i-SENS sales
representative.
Note:
The VetMate Control Solution can be purchased
separately. Please contact your authorised i-SENS sales
representative.
