Test Procedure - Medaval MONOMETER VOICE Gebrauchsanleitung

STEP 3. Get a Drop of Blood
Select the puncture site either in finger or in other parts (AST). Clean
the puncture site with 70% alcohol cotton and let it air-dry.
Fingertip
Hold the lancing device firmly against the
side of your finger. Press the release button.
You will hear a click, indicating that the punc-
ture is complete.
Sites other than fingertip
Please refer to the section of "About AST"
for available punctured sites.
After penetration, discard the first drop of
blood with a clean tissue paper or cotton.
Then gently squeeze the punctured area to
obtain blood. But be attention NOT to smear
the blood sample.
The volume of blood sample must be at
least 0.7 microliter ( actual size).
PLEASE NOTE
Choose a different spot each time you test. Repeated punctures in the same
spot may cause soreness and calluses.
Before you decide to do AST, please consult your health professional firstly.
Since the first drop of blood usually contains tissue fluid and serum, which
may affect the test result, it is recommended to be discarded.

Your blood glucose is 92 milligrams
per deciliter.
PLEASE NOTE
Do not push your finger (with blood on it) against the test strip or try to apply
a smeared sample on the test strip.
If you do not apply a blood sample to the test strip within 3 minutes, the me-
ter will automatically turn off. You must remove and reinsert the test strip to
restart the test procedure.
The blood should be completely filled the confirmation window before the
meter begins to count down. If you find that the confirmation window is not
filled with blood when the meter is counting, NEVER try to add more blood
to the test strip. Discard the test strip and retest with a new one.
If you have trouble filling the test strip, please contact the Customer Service
for help.
