1. Before testing. Compare the
confirmation dot on the back of
the new test strip to the shade
marked
unused on the chart.
Do not use the test strip if the
confirmation dot is darker than
the color of an unused test strip
on the Color Chart.
2. After testing. Directly after read-
ing a meter result, you can com-
pare the color of the test strip con-
firmation dot with the colors on
the chart. The color of the confir-
mation dot will either match one
of the colors on the chart or fall
between two colors. When the
color of the blue dot falls between
two colors, your blood glucose
level is between the values printed
next to the two colors. This compar-
ison will give you a rough estimate
of your blood glucose level.
Note: If your Color Chart reading
and meter result do not agree and do
not reflect how you feel, follow the
testing tips for accuracy on pages
38–39. Do not use the Color Chart
with control solution tests.
