Getting too little blood message when there is lots, repeated three different strips.. same message each time

The CONTOUR NEXT meter shows a "too little blood" message with different strips because the test strip does not have enough blood applied. When this happens, the meter beeps twice, and the screen displays a blinking blood drop with a plus sign. Users then have 60 seconds to apply more blood to the same test strip without removing it.
