Running a Control Test
You need the meter, a test strip, and control solution Level 1 or Level 2. The control level is printed
on the bottle label.
Note:
Most people just test the Level 1 control. If you wish, you can also test a Level 2 control. A set
of Level 1 and Level 2 control solutions is available for purchase. To order control solutions,
talk to your pharmacist or visit www.accu-chek.com to order online. Your meter is designed to
recognize the difference between the ACCU-CHEK Aviva control solution and blood. The control
results are not displayed in memory.
