Frequently Asked Questions
General Questions
Do I lose the memory or the time and date setting when changing the battery?
The stored values will be kept in the meter at all times: they cannot get lost when changing the battery. If the battery change is done according to the user instructions (empty battery stays in the meter until new battery is available to be inserted) the time and date settings remain stored in the meter as well.
What happens if I do not apply enough blood on the test strip?
If the amount of blood you applied is insufficient, after a few seconds an acoustic warning, in the form of 3 beeps, sounds. You can then apply an additional amount of blood.
Can I delete stored results?
It is not possible to delete stored results.
Is it possible to test with different blood sample types?
Yes. Capillary blood for in-meter dosing. Venous, Arterial and Neonatal blood for outside-meter dosing
