Infection Control
Abnormally high levels of Vitamin C
or other reducing substances will
cause false low blood glucose
results. Normal levels of reducing
substances have little effect on
blood glucose results.
Use universal blood precautions.
All patient samples and materials
with which they come in contact
are considered biohazards and
should be handled as if capable
of transmitting infection.

Do not use blood samples with
preservatives that contain fluoride
(gray-top test tubes). You will get
false low results.

glucose (hyperglycemia). If you
get results below 60 mg/dL
(3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL
(13.3 mmol/L), and do not have
symptoms, first repeat the test.
If you have symptoms and
continue to get results that fall
below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or
above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L),
follow the treatment advice of
your healthcare professional.
In many cases, the meter can detect
if the drop of blood was too small to
give an accurate reading. However,
it is important that you also look at
the test strip to make sure that you
applied enough blood.

meter will no longer give results and
you must replace the batteries before
you can perform another test.
The meter’s current time and date
settings are saved for a minimum of
30 minutes after the batteries have
been removed. After that you may
need to reset the time and date.
Dead batteries and/or battery
removal will not erase or change test
results, default settings, or codes
stored in the meter.
The batteries should last about 18
months when testing up to two (2)
times a day. When the battery symbol
appears on the meter display, the
batteries are getting low.
You will still be able to test with low
batteries, but you should replace
them as soon as possible.

1. Make sure the meter is turned off
before you remove the batteries.
2. Turn the meter over so that the
front of the meter is resting in the
palm of your hand.
4. Remove the battery compartment
