Preparing the Meter and Test Strip

the meter's test strip port. Gently insert the test strip until the
meter beeps. Do not force the test strip into the meter.
The symbol will appear on the screen.

Applying Blood Sample

Step 8
Obtain a blood sample using the
lancing device. Place the device against
the pad of the finger. Press the release
button. Remove the device from the
finger. Wait a few seconds for a blood
drop to form. A minimum volume
of 0.5 microliter is needed to fill the
confirmation window (actual size of 0.5 µL : ).

Step 9
After the symbol appears on the screen, apply the blood
sample to the narrow end of the test strip till the meter beeps.
If the confirmation window is not filled in time because of
abnormal viscosity (thickness and stickiness) or insufficient
volume, the Er4 message may appear.
It is recommended to place the test strip vertically into the blood
sample site as shown below.
Note:
The meter may switch off if the blood sample is not
applied within 2 minutes of the
screen. If the meter turns off, remove the strip, reinsert, and
start from step 8.
