Important Information

●Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause readings

which are lower than actual values. If you believe you are suffering

from severe dehydration, consult a healthcare professional

immediately.

●If your blood glucose results are lower or higher than usual, and you

do not have any symptoms of illness, ﬁrst repeat the test. If you have

symptoms or continue to get results which are higher or lower than

usual, follow the treatment advice of your healthcare professional.

●Use only fresh whole blood samples to test your blood glucose. Using

other substances will lead to incorrect results.

●If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent with your blood

glucose test results and you have followed all the instructions given in

this ownerʼs manual, contact your healthcare professional.

●We do not recommend using this product on severely hypotensive

indi viduals or patients in shock. Readings which are lower than actual

values may occur for individuals experiencing a

hyperglycaemic-hyperosmolar state, with or without ketosis. Please

consult the healthcare professional before use.

●The measurement unit used for indicating the concentration of blood

or plasma glucose can either have a weight dimension (mg/dL) or a

molarity (mmol/L). The approximate calculation rule for conversion of

mg/dL in mmol/L is:

For example;

1) 120 mg/dL ÷18 = 6.6 mmol/L

2) 7.2 mmol/L x 18 = 129 mg/dL approximately.

Intended Use

This system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro diagnostic

use) by people with diabetes at home and by health care professionals

in clinical settings as an aid to monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes

control. It is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of

glucose (sugar) in samples of venous whole blood and fresh capillary

whole blood (from the finger, palm, forearm, upper arm, calf and thigh). It

should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes, or testing on newborns.

Professionals may test with capillary and venous blood sample; home

use is limited to capillary whole blood testing. Use only heparin for

anticoagulation of whole blood.

Test Principle

Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood.

The glucose testing is based on the measurement of electrical current

generated by the reaction of glucose with the reagent of the strip. The

meter measures the current, calculates the blood glucose level, and

displays the result. The strength of the current produced by the reaction

depends on the amount of glucose in the blood sample.
