Bayer HealthCare Blood Glucose Meter MODEL Ascensia Elite - Manual (Page 17)

8
3 Insert the Code Strip
into the Test Slot (as
shown). A beep sounds and a
full display appears briefly.
Another beep sounds and the
Function Number (for exam-
ple, F-4) appears in the
Display.
Things to remember:
• It is important to insert the Code Strip with a firm motion
until it comes to a full stop. When inserted fully, the tab
on the top portion of the strip should be completely hid-
den within the Meter.
• The Function Number appearing in the Display must match
the number appearing:
– on the Code Strip.
– on the front of the Code
Strip packet (see #2).
– on the back of the Test Strip
packet.
• If the Function Numbers match as indicated above, the
Meter may now be used to run a control test or blood
glucose test.
• The Meter must be coded again when a new carton of
Test Strips is used unless the F# of the new carton is the
same as the old carton. Use the new Code Strip found in
the new carton of strips.
• Store the Code Strip in the clear plastic packet until all the
strips are used (in case you ever need to recode the meter).
Throw away the old Code Strip when Test Strips are all used.
