Dear VocalPoint SMS-4250 System Owner:
This manual contains important information you must
know about the system. Please read it thoroughly and
carefully and use only with Test Strip.
The most unique feature of this system is its speaking
function which is an acoustic aid for users.
Another unique feature is its no code function which
means no need to calibrate your meter, and makes you
easily monitor blood glucose at home.

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 symptoms of illness, rst
repeat the test. If you have symptoms or continue
to get results higher or lower than usual, follow the
treatment advice of your healthcare professional.
Use only capillary whole blood sample to test your▪
blood glucose. Using other substances will cause
wrong results.
If you are experiencing symptoms that are inconsistent ▪
with your blood glucose test results and you have
followed all instructions described in this owner’s
manual, call your healthcare professional.
Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive▪
individuals or patients in shock. Readings which are
lower than actual values may occur for individuals
experiencing a hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar state,
with or without ketosis. Critically ill patients should not
be tested with blood glucose meters.
Please refer to your test strip package insert for▪
additional important information.

Important: There are limitations for doing AST.
Please consult your healthcare professional before
you do AST.
What is AST?
Alternative site testing (AST)
means that people use
parts of the body other than
the fingertips to check their
blood glucose levels. This
system provides you to test
on the palm, the forearm,
the upper arm, the calf, or
the thigh with the equivalent
results to ngertip testing.
What’s the advantage?
Fingertips feel pain more
readily because they are full
of nerve endings (receptors).
At other body sites, since
nerve endings are not so
condensed, you will not
feel as much pain as at the
ngertip.
ABOUT ALTERNATIVE SITE TESTING (AST)

When to use AST?
Food, medication, illness, stress and exercise can
affect blood glucose levels. Capillary blood at fingertip
reects these changes faster than capillary blood at other
sites. Therefore when testing blood glucose during or
immediately after meal, physical exercise, or any other
event, take blood sample from your nger only.
We strongly recommend you do AST ONLY in the
following intervals:
In a pre-meal or fasting state (more than 2 hours since ▪
the last meal).
Two hours or more after taking insulin.▪
Two hours or more after exercise.▪
Do NOT use AST if:
You think your blood glucose is low.▪
You are unaware of hypoglycemia▪
You are testing for hyperglycemia▪
Your AST results do not match the way you feel.▪
You are testing for hyperglycemia.▪
Your routine glucose results are often uctuating. ▪

9
Please follow suggestions below before getting a drop
Rub the puncture site about 20 seconds before▪
penetration.
Use a clear cap while setting the lancing device.▪
How to increase the accuracy?
Stimulating blood perfusion by rubbing the puncture site
prior to blood extraction has a significant influence on
the glucose value obtained. Blood from a site that has
not been rubbed exhibits a measurably different glucose
concentration than blood from the finger. When the
puncture site was rubbed prior to blood extraction, the
difference was signicantly reduced.

INTRODUCTION TO THE SYSTEM
▼Intended Use
▼Contents of the System
▼Principle of Measurement
This system is intended for use outside the body (in vitro
diagnostic use). It should be used only for testing glucose
(sugar) and only with fresh capillary whole blood samples
(from the finger, the palm, the forearm, the upper arm,
the calf and the thigh). The system is intended for use at
home and in clinical settings. It should not be used for the
diagnosis of diabetes or for the testing of newborns.
AST in this system can be used only during steady-state
blood glucose conditions described in the section of “About
Alternative Site Testing (AST)”.
The system consists of three main products: the blood
glucose meter, test strips, and a control solution. These
products have been designed, tested, and proven to work
together as a system to produce accurate blood glucose
test results. Use only the same brand-name test strips and
a control solution with the blood glucose meter.
The test 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 and displays
the corresponding blood glucose level. The strength of the
current produced by the reaction depends on the amount
of glucose in the blood sample.
