View Window Appearance

Make sure your blood sample covers the
whole area of the view window to get an
accurate test result. An insufficient blood
sample will result in an error message ("Er4").
If this occurs, repeat the test with a new test
strip.
CAUTION
- Check the expiration date printed on the strip vial every time you use a test strip. Do not use
expired GE006 Blood Glucose Test Strips.
- Use each GE006 Blood Glucose Test Strip immediately after removing it from the vial.
- Do not reuse GE006 Blood Glucose Test Strips.
- Do not perform testing immediately after moving from one ambient temperature to another
(e.g. after coming indoors from the outside). Allow 45 minutes for the temperature of the
meter and the test strips to equilibrate.
- Apply the blood sample only on the sample port of the test strip.

Understanding Test Results and Messages

If your blood glucose result is unusually high or low, or if you question your test results, repeat the test
with a new GE006 Blood Glucose Test Strip.
You can also run a Quality Control Test with the
Blood Glucose Meter and GE006 Test Strip (Refer to "Performing a Quality Control Test" on page 40) .
If the test result still remains unusually high or low, contact your healthcare professional immediately.
If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with your blood glucose test results and you
have made sure to follow all instructions in this manual, contact your healthcare professional
immediately.
Consult your health care provider for appropriate disposal of used test strips and lancets.
