When you have inserted a test cassette, removed the
protective film from the display and the protective strip
from the batteries and set the language (see Chapter
2), you can perform blood glucose tests with the meter.
The time and date are already set in the meter. If these
differ from the current time or date you can correct
either of these (see Chapter 4).
If you want to use certain functions of the meter, e.g.
set reminders for when to test, you can change the
meter’s settings before you start to test or at any other
time (see Chapter 4).
To perform a blood glucose test, you only need:
the meter with inserted test cassette
the lancing device with inserted lancet drum
