How do I know if I need to apply more blood to my test strip?
The Second-Chance® Sampling feature will cause your meter to beep twice and display a flashing test strip icon. Within 60 seconds, apply more blood to the test strip so there is enough for the meter to measure your blood glucose. Once you have added enough blood, the meter will automatically take a reading as usual.

Wash and dry your hands well before and after handling the test strips

What is the benefit of No Coding® technology?
No Coding® technology eliminates the need for manual calibration or entering a code before testing. Each lot of test strips contain embedded calibration information in the strip pattern itself. When a test strip is inserted, the meter automatically reads this information and calibrates accordingly.
