Important Information

The FORA G20 Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for use

in the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole

blood from the finger and the following alternative sites: palm,

forearm or upper-arm. It is intended for use by people with diabetes

mellitus at home as an aid in monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes

control program. It is not intended for the diagnosis of or screening

for diabetes mellitus, and is not intended for use on neonates. It is

intended to be used by a single person and should not be shared.

The alternative site testing in the FORA G20 Blood Glucose

Monitoring System can be used only during steady-state blood

glucose conditions.

This meter has some speaking functions but is not intended for use

by the visually impaired.

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.

Check your system to ensure that it is unopened prior to use and that it

contains all parts listed above. If anything is missing or damaged, please

return your system to the place of purchase.
