    ® ® THE OneTouch UltraSmart SYSTEM The OneTouch ® UltraSmart ® System uses the latest blood glucose monitoring technology. It measures the glucose content of a blood sample by means of an electrical current produced in the test strip and is measured by the meter. Test results are “plasma-calibrated.” This makes it easier for you and your diabetes-care team to compare your meter results with laboratory tests.

  • Page 19 Important Test Strip Information • Store test strip vials in a cool, dry place below 86˚F (30˚C). Keep away from direct sunlight and heat. Do Not refrigerate. • Store test strips in their original vial only. To avoid damage or contamination, Do Not transfer test strips to any other place.
  • Page 20: Before Testing

    Each time you turn the meter on, the display background will quickly change from dark to light and form the words “OneTouch UltraSmart”. This tells you that the system is performing several UltraSmart self-checks to confirm that the meter is working properly.
  • Page 21: Coding The Meter

    Coding the Meter ® Code numbers are used to calibrate the OneTouch ® ® ® UltraSmart Meter with the OneTouch Ultra Test Strips for accurate results. You must code the meter before using it for the first time and then every time you change to another vial of test strips.
  • Page 22 STEP 2 See the Code Number. The code number will appear on the display. (After every 25 tests the meter will display the code number and will prompt “Check Code Press OK”. Press the OK button if the code number is still correct.) (Example) STEP 3...
  • Page 23: Checking The System With Control Solution

    STEP 4 Code the Meter. Move up or down using the Arrow button to the code number that matches the code number on the test strip vial. The new code number will flash on the display for about three seconds, after which the meter will prompt you to “Apply Blood”.
  • Page 24 Before you begin: ® ® • Use only OneTouch Ultra Control Solution. • Check the expiration date on the control solution vial. Record the discard date (date opened plus three months) on the vial label. Do Not use after expiration or discard date, whichever comes first.
  • Page 25 When you should do a control solution test: • To practice the test process instead of using blood. • When you open a new vial of test strips. • Once a week. • Whenever you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working properly.
  • Page 26 To turn on the meter, insert a test strip, contact bars end first and facing up, into the test port. Push it all the way in until it will go no further. “OneTouch UltraSmart” will appear briefly (Example) on the display. Then “Code 9 (Example), Check Code” is displayed.
  • Page 27 Note: You must select “Control Solution” to distinguish control solution tests from blood glucose tests. Marked control solution tests will not be included in your averages. Do Not use Control Solution mode for testing blood. STEP 3 Apply Control Solution to the Test Strip. To ensure an accurate control solution test, shake the vial, discard the first drop and wipe the dispenser tip before you begin.
  • Page 28 CONFIRMATION WINDOW WARNING: If mg/dL does not ➧ appear with the Control Solution result, call LifeScan Customer Service at 1 800 227-8862. The control solution will be drawn into the narrow (Example) channel. When the confirmation window is The control solution...

  • Page 32 Choosing the right sampling site at the right time: ® ® The OneTouch UltraSmart Meter allows you to sample blood from your fingertip, forearm or palm. At times, results obtained at the forearm or palm may be different from a fingertip measurement. Talk to your healthcare professional before you begin using your forearm or palm for sampling.
  • Page 33 CAUTION: Do Not test on your forearm or palm when: • You think your blood glucose is rapidly falling, such as within two hours of exercise or a rapid-acting insulin injection or insulin pump bolus. Testing with a fingertip sample may identify hypoglycemia or an insulin reaction sooner than testing with a forearm or palm sample.
  • Page 34: Lancing And Sampling From Your Fingertip

    Choose a different puncture site each time you test. Repeated punctures in the same spot may cause soreness and calluses. If bruising occurs at an alternate site or you have difficulty getting a sample, consider sampling from a fingertip instead. You may want to review the choice of sites with your healthcare professional.
  • Page 35 STEP 2 Insert a Sterile Lancet Into the Sampler. Insert the lancet into the holder and push in firmly. Twist the protective disk until it separates from the lancet and save the disk for later use. Do Not twist the lancet. STEP 3 ®...
  • Page 36 STEP 5 Cock the Sampler. Slide the ejection/cocking control back until it clicks. If it does not click, it may have been cocked when you inserted the lancet. STEP 6 Puncture Your Finger. Hold the Sampler firmly against the side of your finger.
  • Page 37 STEP 7 Get a Round Drop of Blood. Gently squeeze and/or massage your fingertip until a round drop of blood at least 1μL ( actual size) forms on your fingertip. Do Not squeeze excessively on the puncture site. If the blood smears or runs, Do Not use that sample.
  • Page 38: Lancing And Sampling From An Alternate Site

    Lancing and Sampling From an Alternate Site Sampling from your forearm or palm allows you to use your fingertips less often. You may find that obtaining a blood sample from an alternate site is less painful than using a fingertip. Getting a blood sample from your forearm or palm is different than getting a sample from your fingertips.
  • Page 39 ® ® OneTouch UltraClear is used for forearm and palm sampling only. Replace the ® ® blue OneTouch UltraSoft ® Cap with the OneTouch ® UltraClear Cap. Blue cap for fingertip sampling only STEP 1 ® Remove the OneTouch ® UltraSoft Cap by Twisting it Off.
  • Page 40 STEP 3 Twist On the OneTouch ® UltraClear ® Cap Until it is Snug. STEP 4 Adjust the Depth Setting. You may have to adjust the Sampler to a deeper setting to get a large enough drop of blood from your forearm or palm. Twist the depth adjustment knob toward the larger dots to increase the depth.
  • Page 41 STEP 6 Puncture Your Forearm or Palm. Press and hold the Sampler against your forearm or palm for a few seconds, then press the release button. Keep holding the Sampler and ® ® OneTouch UltraClear Cap against your skin until a round drop of blood forms under the cap.

  • Page 44 STEP 3 Prepare to Apply Sample. The drop of blood should be next to the top edge of the test strip. Blood should not be applied to the flat surface of the test strip. When applying a drop of blood from your forearm or palm, keep your forearm or palm steady and bring the top edge of the test strip to the drop of blood with your other hand.
  • Page 45 STEP 4 Apply Sample. Obtain a round drop of blood using the Sampler. The blood sample must be at least 1μL in volume ( actual size) to fill the confirmation window. Touch and hold the drop of blood to the narrow channel in the top edge of the test strip.
  • Page 46 Do Not add more blood to the test strip; discard the test strip and retest. If you have trouble filling the test strip, call LifeScan Customer Service at Sample Good 1 800-227-8862 for assistance.
  • Page 47 WARNING: If mg/dL does not appear with the test result, call LifeScan Customer Service at 1 800-227-8862. CAUTION: If you test at the low end of the operating range (43°F/6°C) and your glucose is high (over 180 mg/dL), the reading on your meter may be lower than your actual glucose.

    COMPARING METER AND LABORATORY RESULTS ® ® OneTouch UltraSmart Meter test results and laboratory test results are both expressed in plasma-equivalent units. However, your meter result may differ somewhat from your laboratory result due to normal variation. Meter results can be affected by factors and conditions that do not affect laboratory results in the ®...
  • Page 52 While at the lab: • Make sure that the meter test and the lab test are performed within 15 minutes of each other. • Wash your hands before obtaining a blood sample. • Use only fresh capillary blood. You may still have a variation between the results because blood glucose levels can change significantly over short periods, especially if you have recently eaten, exercised, taken medication, or experienced stress.
  • Page 53: Caring For Your System

    LifeScan recommends that you store the meter in its carrying case after each use. A cloth dampened with water and mild detergent can be used to wipe down the outside of the meter.
  • Page 54: Batteries

    Batteries ® ® Your OneTouch UltraSmart Meter comes with two AAA alkaline batteries already installed. The batteries will provide you with enough power to perform up to 540 tests, depending on backlight use. When replacing the batteries, use only two AAA alkaline batteries.
