● For accurate test results, apply the drop of blood to the tip of the test strip within 20 seconds after
puncturing.

CAUTION
● If "LO" or "HI" appears on the screen:
Repeat the test. If "LO" or "HI" still appears, contact your doctor or healthcare professional. "LO" appears
if your test result is less than 1.1 mmol/L "HI" appears if your test result is more than 33.3 mmol/L.
● The "hypo" or "hyper" icons may appear depending on the threshold limit you have set (§6.4).
● If test results do not match how you feel:
Make sure you have performed the test correctly as explained in §4.2. Then, conduct a control test to
check that the system is working properly (§4.3). Repeat the test using a blood sample taken from a
fingertip (do not use an alternative site). If the test result still does not match how you feel, contact
your doctor or healthcare professional.
