Performing a Blood Glucose Test
1
Prepare Your Meter
Insert a FreeStyle Lite test strip into the meter
until it stops. The meter will power on.
Note: If you do not start the test within two minutes, the meter will
turn off. To restart your meter, take out the unused FreeStyle Lite test
strip and reinsert it into the meter.
System Check Screen
Each time the meter powers on, this screen
briefly appears so that you can make sure the
display is working properly.
System Check
The date and time will briefly appear after the
system check screen so that you can make sure
your meter is set to the correct time and date.
The blood drop and test strip symbols will
appear on the display screen. Your meter is now
ready for you to apply the blood sample.

Potential Bruising
It is possible you may experience bruising at the test site. If bruising
does occur, you may choose to lance another test site.

Obtain a Blood Sample
Select a test site. There are differences in testing on fingers versus
other alternative sites.
Use your lancing device to obtain a blood sample. Refer to the
lancing device insert for detailed instructions on how to use the
FreeStyle lancing device.
WARNING: If you are testing for hypoglycaemia (low blood
glucose), or if you suffer from hypoglycaemia unawareness, we
recommend that you test on your fingers.

Filling the FreeStyle Lite Test Strip
with Blood
a. Make sure that the FreeStyle Lite test strip
is in the meter, the meter is powered on
and the blood drop and test strip symbols
are displayed. You are now ready to apply
the blood sample.
b. Bring the FreeStyle Lite test strip to the
blood sample at a slight angle.
Important: Use only one test strip sample area
per test. Do not apply blood to both edges, or you
may get an inaccurate result. Test strips may be
used only once. Discard used test strips.
c. The FreeStyle Lite test strip pulls the blood
into the strip through the sample area.
