Getting to know your meter

1.2  The main features at a glance

Fast testing

The meter needs only approximately 5 seconds for 

each test.

Easy testing

For testing, you do not need to press a single 

button. You insert a test strip into the meter, which 

switches it on, apply blood to the test strip, read 

the value and then pull the test strip out of the 

meter. 

Blood volume checking

To perform a test, the meter requires 1–2 µL blood 

(1 µL (microlitre) = 1 thousandth of a millilitre). The 

meter detects if the applied amount is not suf-

ficient.

Flagging results

You can flag results with different symbols, which 

indicate particular situations during the test.

Memory

The meter automatically saves up to 350 results 

with the time and date of the test and all other 

information that is important for the test.

Integrated data analysis

From the stored test results your meter can calcu-

late your average values for the last 7, 14 or 30 

days.
