any remaining paper.

Reel off a few centimeters of paper from the new paper roll, with the leading

edge of the paper feeding forward from the bottom of the roll.

outside the compartment on the printer casing.

Close the lid until it snaps into place.

Troubleshooting

Unexpected Results

When results do not reﬂect the patient's condition, repeat the test using a fresh cartridge

and sample. If results are still suspect, test the lot of cartridges in use with i-STAT control

solutions. If the controls are in range, there may be an interfering substance in the

sample. Check the Cartridge and Test Information sheets for the test in question. Test by

another method to verify the result. If the controls are out of range there may be a

problem with that particular cartridge lot. Use another lot number or repeat the test using

another method, and refer to Support Services Information in the Technical Bulletin

section of the i-STAT 1 System Manual.

Startup Messages

The handheld performs self-checks when it is turned on. If a condition that should be

corrected in the near future, but that will not affect results, is detected, a warning is

displayed. The operator presses the 1 key to access the Test Menu. The analyzer can be

customized to lock out the operator until the corrective action is taken.
