5. Turn the test strip over and check to see
that the confirmation dot is completely
blue. If it is not, discard the test strip.
Repeat the test with a new test strip,
applying a larger drop of control solution
to the centre of the pink test square.
CAUTION: If you do not firmly insert the
test strip into the meter until it stops, you
may get an inaccurately low result.
IMPORTANT: Immediately insert the test
strip after applying the control solution. If
you do not insert the test strip within 2 min-
utes, discard the test strip and start over
with a new test strip.
6. Firmly insert the
test strip, confirma-
tion dot side down,
into the test strip
holder until
it stops.
