Wait for the hand symbol and the blood drop to flash in
the display before you apply control solution.
Take a bottle of control solution and hold the dropper tip
downwards until a hanging drop forms at its end. Gently
touch the drop of control solution against the front edge of
the test strip near the black notch until the monitor beeps
and 000 appears in the display.
The monitor runs a test, then displays the result and
"CTRL".
Refer to the table of expected values on the peel-off label
of the test strip drum container. If the result is outside this
range, run another quality control check. If the result of the
second test is outside the expected range as well, refer to
the "Problem Checklist" in Chapter 9. If you are unable to
identify or eliminate the source of the problem, contact our
Diabetes Care Info-Line. Please see Chapter 12 for details.
Control readings (identified by "CTRL")
are not used in statistical calculations.
