CareSens N test strips don’t need manual coding and are designed to
work with the CareSens N, CareSens N POP and CareSens N Voice meters.
A. PREPARING THE LANCING DEVICE
- Unscrew and remove the adjustable tip.
- Insert a new disposable lancet firmly into the carrier.
- Twist off and set aside the protective cover of the disposable lancet and replace the adjustable tip.
- Set the depth of penetration that you want to use; in thicker skin
areas use a higher number; in thin sensitive skin areas use a lower
number. Rotate the top portion of the adjustable tip until the setting
number matches the arrow.
- Cock the lancing device by pulling on the sleeve until the device clicks.
B. PREPARING THE METER AND TEST STRIP
- Wash your hands and the site from which the blood will be drawn.
- Gently insert the square end of the test strip into the meter port
with its contact bars facing upwards. The (strip with blood drop) symbol
should appear on the screen.
- Get a blood sample using your lancing device (see instructions above).
- Touch the pointed tip of the strip into the blood droplet on your
finger, keeping the test strip vertical to the blood droplet, making
sure the blood fills up the small window on the black side of the strip.
Note: You only need about 0.5μl of blood (about the size of a
pinhead).
- Once the blood sample has filled the confirmation window, the meter
will beep. If the blood sample has insufficient volume, an error message
will appear.
- The test result will appear after the meter counts down from 5 to 1.
The result will automatically be stored in the meter’s memory.
Note: the test strip must be inserted into your
meter before applying blood to the pointed end. The meter does not
require any manual coding. CareSens N blood glucose test strips are for
use only in CareSens N, CareSens N POP and CareSens N Voice meters. The
meter will switch off if the blood sample is not applied within 2
minutes of inserting the test strip into the meter.
