range printed on the label of the test strip vial. Repeat the
control solution test if the test result falls outside of the range.

If results continue to fall outside the range printed on the
test strip vial, the CareSens N Test Strip and Meter may not be
working properly. Do not use your system and contact your
authorised i-SENS sales representative.

result will appear after the meter counts
down from 5 to 1. After your control
solution result appears on the display,
press
for 3 seconds till the "check"
appears on the display. When the "check"
is displayed, the result is not stored in the
meter’s memory and is not included in
the averages.

Compare the result displayed on the meter
to the range printed on the test strip vial.
The result should fall within the range.
Used strips should be discarded safely in
appropriate containers.

The range printed on the test strip vial is for the
CareSens Control Solution only. It does not have any
connection to your blood glucose level.
