    6 Troubleshooting LO and HI blood glucose messages What it means You may have a very low blood glucose level (severe hypoglycaemia), below 20 mg/dL. What to do This may require immediate treatment. Although this message could be due to a test error, it is safer to treat first and then do another test.
  • Page 38 Temperature messages What it means The meter is too hot (above 44°C) to perform a test. What to do Move the meter and test strips to a cooler area. Insert a new test strip when the meter and test strips are within the operating range (10-44°C).
  • Page 39 Error and other messages What it means There is a problem with the meter. What to do Do Not use the meter. Contact Customer Care. What it means Error message could be caused either by a used test strip or a problem with the meter.
