Throughout these Instructions for use you will see examples of what the
display looks like. Any elements that are shown surrounded by a halo in
this booklet actually flash on the meter’s display.
Example:
You have turned on the meter to perform a blood glucose test. In the
display you see the test strip symbol and blood drop symbol. The drop
symbol is flashing.

The time, date and blood glucose results shown in the display are
intended only as examples. They will not be the same as those shown
by your meter. The blood glucose meter that is depicted in these Instruc-
tions for use displays blood glucose results in mg/dL (see Chapter 2.2
“Checking the unit of measurement for blood glucose”) and has been
set to 24-hour format (see Chapter 3.2.4 “Setting the time-and-date
format, time and date”). Your meter, on the other hand, may display
blood glucose results in mmol/L and/or be set to 12-hour format.
