[. . . ] the control solutions contain a specified proportion of glucose which is precisely known. When you carry out the blood sugar test with this liquid, you can check afterwards whether the measured value is within the range of the actual value. the actual value for the control solutions is printed on the test strip container. There are two different, colour-coded control solutions, one for the "normal" value range (green) and the other for the "high" value range (red). To ensure that the device and the test strips are working perfectly together. Before you carry out the first blood sugar test, you should carry out three successful tests with the control liquid one after the other. This makes sure that you are able to carry out the test correctly, and that the device is working perfectly. If all three test results reach the value which is printed on the test strip container, you can start carrying out the actual blood sugar measurement. At least once per week when you open a new container of test strips if the measured results do not agree with the way you feel · if the device has been dropped · Every time when you suspect that the blood sugar measuring system is not working correctly Write the date of opening on the bottle. The control solution should reach room temperature (20°C to 25°C/68°F to 77 °F) before you use it. Make sure you have all materials required for the blood sugar test (Fig. How to obtain a blood drop important information about avoiding infection: - Never use a lancet or picking aid together with another person. - Try to prevent hand lotion, or oils or dirt getting in or onto the lancet or pricking aid. Feed the lancet into the pricking aid up to the stop (without turning it at the same time) (Fig. Place the cap on the pricking aid again and tighten it by turning it clockwise (not too firmly). Turn the end cap in the appropriate direction until the arrow points to the number for the required pricking depth (Fig. How to find a suitable pricking depth for yourself: 1-2 for soft or thin skin 3 for normal skin 4-5 for thick or calloused skin 14) until it engages with a "click". If it does not engage, it was probably tensioned already when inserting the lancet. Place the pricking aid against your fingertip (on the side if possible) and then press the trigger button (Fig. Note: Your system only requires a small drop of blood to carry out a test. Open the pricking aid again by turning the cap anticlockwise and removing it. Remove the used lancet carefully by pulling it out, and then dispose of it carefully in order to avoid injuries to other people. [. . . ] Solution Make sure the measuring cuff is correctly applied and measure once again. If changing the batteries does not help, please ask your dealer for help. The measuring cuff pressure is insufficient, although it has already reached the highest pressure build up point. Display/Problem The device shows nothing in the display after you have fed the test strip in. [. . . ]
