Testing blood glucose

5.3  Checking the test result using the test strip control window

The test strip itself allows you to estimate the test 

result and thus also to check the displayed result.

Before the test

There is a round coloured control window on the 

back of the test strip.

1 

Compare the colour of this window with the 

coloured dots on the label of the test strip 

container.

The colour of the control window must match the 

colour of the top coloured dot (0 mg/dL, 0 mmol/L). 

If the control window is a different colour, you must 

no longer use the test strip.
