If you have set-up your
meter in Advanced Mode,
your meter will display three
markers after you test your
blood.
Pre-meal
= Marks a
test result that was taken
before a meal.
Post-meal
= Marks a
test result that was taken
after a meal.
Diary
= The diary marker
can be used to mark any result as being unique or
different in some way, and for which you may want
to make notes in your diary. Seeing a result with this
symbol next to it in the memory will help remind you
that there is more information recorded about this
test result.
Please see the following pages to use these options.
If you selected Advanced
Mode (L-2 on your display)
you can change your meter’s
personal low and high blood
glucose settings. By person-
alizing these settings, your
C
ONTOUR
®
XT meter will help
you track these HI and LO
