9.2 Troubleshooting
When symbols and numbers are surrounded by a halo, it indicates that
they are flashing in the meter’s display.
If this happens ...
it means:
Meter will not turn on.
Batteries are empty.
Insert new batteries.
Ambient temperature is too low.
Move somewhere warmer. Let the meter
slowly warm up.
Meter is defective.
Contact Customer Support (see Chapter 19
for details).
The meter is turned
on, but the display
remains blank.
The display is defective.
Contact Customer Support (see Chapter 19 for
details).
Clock has stopped
or clock is slow after
the meter is turned
on.
The meter was exposed to temperatures below
-10 °C and the batteries are starting to freeze.
Turn the meter off. Let the meter slowly warm
up. With batteries always store the meter at
between -10 °C and +50 °C (with test strip drum
at b2 °C and +30 °C).
This message/
symbol appears ...
and means:
The test strip drum in the meter is empty.
Insert a new drum. If the message is still dis-
played, please contact Customer Support (see
Chapter 19 for details).
CTRL
You inserted a test strip drum that has al-
ready been used.
You opened the drum compartment.
You changed the batteries without changing
the test strip drum at the same time.
You are requested to run a quality control
check. The meter cannot determine how long
the test strip drum has been outside the meter,
or whether it is still usable. If you are certain
that the 90-day “use-by” period has not been
exceeded, you may continue to use the drum.
Perform a quality control check. The result of the
quality control check will be stored in memory
along with the flashing drum symbol and “CTRL”.
The drum symbol will remain displayed until
a new drum is inserted. All test results will be
stored along with the flashing drum symbol. If
you do not perform a quality control check, the
flashing drum symbol and the flashing “CTRL”
will appear with every new test until a new drum
is inserted.
