Apply blood sample
Obtain a rounded drop of blood from your finger
using the blood sampler. The blood sample must
be at least 1 microliter in volume (
actual size of
rounded drop) to fill the confirmation window or
you may get an Æ or possible inaccurate test
result. See page 32 for how to obtain a drop of
blood.
•When the apply symbol R appears on the display,
touch and hold the drop of blood to the top edge
of the OneTouch
®
Ultra test strip where it meets
the narrow channel. Do not push your finger
against the test strip or try to apply a smeared
sample. Do not apply blood to the front or back of
the test strip.
Hold the blood drop to the top edge of the test
strip until blood has completely filled the
confirmation window before the meter begins to
count down. The InDuo
TM
meter display will begin
to count down from N to A.
