GETTING YOUR InDuo™ SYSTEM READY FOR USE

The control solution test

OneTouch Ultra™ control solution is used to check
®
that the meter and the OneTouch
are working together as a system and that you are
performing the test correctly. It is very important that
you do this simple test routinely to check that the
system is providing accurate results.
The control solution test should be used to:
• check that your meter and OneTouch
strips are working together properly.
• check that you are performing the test correctly.
• practise testing your blood.
The control solution test should be done:
• at least once a week.
• when you begin using a new vial of OneTouch
Ultra™ test strips.
• if you suspect that your InDuo™ meter or
OneTouch ® Ultra™ test strips are not working properly.
• when your blood glucose test results are not
consistent with how you feel, or when you think
your results are not accurate.
• if you drop your InDuo™ meter.
