Action
• Turn the monitor off and on again. Repeat the test. Wait until
the hand symbol has appeared in the display before touch-
ing the test strip against the blood drop.
• Clean the optical system and repeat the test.
• Insert a new test strip drum.
• Hold the monitor upright and let the strip drop out, or
remove the strip manually, even if it takes a small amount of
force.
• Repeat the test with a new strip, this time ejecting it by
means of the ON/OFF button.
If this test result agrees with the way you
feel, follow your doctor's advice. If the way
you feel does not agree with this test result,
