The Meter's Display

When you turn the meter on, it briefly shows all the
display's letters, numbers, and symbols. Regularly check
that all segments of each letter, number, and symbol
appear. Please compare your meter's display to the
meter display shown here on this page.

Code Chip

Each box of test strips comes with its own code chip.
The code chip provides the meter with information such
as the lot number and expiration date of the test strips.
Before each test, make sure the correct code chip is in
the meter. Each time you open a new box of test strips,
replace the old code chip with the new one.
Protect the code chip from moisture and also from
equipment that produces magnetic fields, such as
a microwave oven.
