WarnIng
Blood glucose results can be displayed in either mg/dL or mmol/L. The back label
of the meter shows the unit of measurement. If the meter shows the wrong unit,
contact the ACCU‑CHEK Customer Care Service Center at 1‑800‑858‑8072. If you
do not know which unit of measurement is correct for you, contact your
healthcare professional. Using the wrong unit of measurement may cause
misinterpretation of your actual blood glucose level and may lead to improper
therapy.
Performing a Blood glucose Test with Blood from Your Fingertip
Refer to Important Safety Information before performing a blood glucose test. Before you perform your first
blood glucose test, set up the meter correctly and perform a control test. You need the meter, a test strip, and a
lancing device with a lancet drum loaded to perform a blood glucose test.
