Getting to know your system The Range Indicator Feature The OneTouch Select® Plus Meter automatically lets you know if your current glucose result is within, below or above your range limits. It does this by displaying a Range Indicator Note with your current glucose result.
Page 21
Getting to know your system 3 Possible Range Indicator Notes Example Example Example Below Range In Range Result Above Range Result Result A Range Indicator Note will appear with your result after each test depending upon how you set your "General" low and high range limits in the meter.
Page 22
Getting to know your system The meter also provides Meal Tagging to help identify Before or After Meal tests. If you turn Meal Tagging On, you will be asked to set up additional "Mealtime" low and high range limits. Your meter will use these mealtime settings to decide which Range Indicator Note (Low, In Range or High) will appear with your result.
Page 23
Getting to know your system Things you should know before using the Range Indicator feature: • Your meter knows which range limit "General" or "Mealtime" to apply depending on whether your current result is untagged or meal tagged. • Your meter comes pre-set with Meal Tagging turned Off.
NOTE: If you see any missing pixels within the start-up screen, there may be a problem with the meter. Call OneTouch® Customer Care on 0800 121 200 (UK) or 1800 535 676 (Ireland) during the hours of 8:30am- 6pm Monday-Friday, 9am-1pm Saturday. Or visit www.LifeScan.co.uk.
