Interpreting unexpected
test results
Refer to the following cautions whenever your BG results
are higher or lower than what you expect.

CAUTION
Low BG results
If your BG result is below 3.8 mmol/L it may mean
hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose). This may require
immediate treatment according to your healthcare
professional’s recommendations. Although this result
could be due to a test error, it is safer to treat first,
then do another test.
EXTREME LOW BG is displayed when your BG result is
below 1.1 mmol/L. You may have severe hypoglycaemia
(very low blood glucose). This may require immediate
treatment according to your healthcare professional’s
recommendations. Although this result could be due to a
test error, it is safer to treat first, then do another test.
Dehydration and low BG results
You may get false low BG results if you are severely
dehydrated. If you think you are severely dehydrated,
contact your healthcare professional immediately.
