How to do a control solution test:
NOTE: You cannot perform a control solution test until you have set up the meter completely (see pages
STEP 1 Insert Test Strip.
Insert a test strip, contact bars end first and facing up, into the test port. (Contact bars must be inserted all the way into the meter or you may get an inaccurate test result.) The meter will turn on automatically. All segments will appear briefly on the display followed by the date and time. Then “Ê C” (example) is displayed, followed by the R symbol. Be sure the code number on the display matches the code number on the test strip vial. If the code numbers do not match, code the meter correctly.
After the R symbol appears on the display, press and hold the C button until “Ë” begins flashing on the display. When you see the “Ë” sign, release the C button. With the “Ë” sign on the display, the meter will mark your next test in memory as a control solution test.
