You are requested to perform a quality
control check in order to check the test
strips. The meter has no way of telling
when the drum was first inserted or how
long the partly used drum has already
been in the meter. Perform a quality
control check (see Chapter 6, "Checking
your meter"). If the measurement pro-
duces a correct result, you may continue
to use the test strips. If the result is in-
correct, you need to insert a new drum.
Following the quality control check, the
bottle symbol disappears from the dis-
play. The drum symbol continues to flash
in order to draw attention to the fact that
the meter cannot calculate the use-by
period. The symbol only disappears
when you insert a new drum. All results
are saved along with a flashing drum
symbol. If you do not perform a quality
control check, the flashing bottle symbol
appears with every test until you insert
a new drum.

meter.
