Important Control Solution Test Information; Run A Control Solution Test - Advocate PetTest BMB-EV099X Manual

Make sure that you have set the meter in the Control
Solution test "CTL"mode, so the result will not be stored in
the memory and not be incorporated into the average.
Shake the vial before use. Discard the first drop of control
solution. After squeezing, wipe off the dispenser tip to
avoid contamination. The above steps ensure you get a
good sample and an accurate result.

Important Control Solution Test Information

The control solution range printed on the test strip vial
is for PetTest Control Solution only. It is not a range for
the animal's blood glucose level .
Use only PetTest Control Solutions. Check the expiration
date on the control solution vial. Do not use if it is expired.
Use for only 90 days from the date that you first open it.
Record the discard date (date opened plus 90 days) on
control solution vial. Discard after 90 days.
Store the control solution tightly closed at temperatures
between 35°F -86°F(2°C -30°C). Do not freeze.
Control solution, meter, and test strips should come to room
temperature (between 68 -77°F/20 -25°C) before testing.

Run a Control Solution Test

1. Fully insert a test strip into the meter with the contact bars
end first. Push it in until it goes no further. The meter will
turn on and the display check will appear briefly.
2. When the flashing apply blood symbol ( ) appears on the
display, press M button until a control bottle with "CTL"
appears. Control results marked with a control bottle and
"CTL" will NOT be stored in the meter's memory.
3. Shake the control solution vial well. Remove the cap and
squeeze the vial to discard the first drop. Then wipe off the
dispenser tip to prevent contamination. Squeeze the vial
again to produce another drop and place this drop on a
clean non-porous surface.
