GETTING YOUR InDuo™ SYSTEM READY FOR USE
The control solution test
OneTouch ® Ultra Control Solution is used to check
that the meter and the OneTouch ® Ultra Test Strips
are working together as a system and that you are
performing the test correctly. It is very important that
you do this simple test routinely to check that the
system is providing accurate test results.
The control solution test should be used to:
• check that your meter and OneTouch
® Ultra
Test Strips are working together properly.
• check that you are performing the test correctly.
• practice testing your blood.
The control solution test should be done:
• at least once a week.
• when you begin using a new vial of OneTouch
® Ultra
Test Strips.
• if you suspect that your InDuo™ meter or
OneTouch ® Ultra Test Strips are not working properly.
• when your blood glucose test results are not
consistent with how you feel, or when you think
your results are not accurate.
• if you drop your InDuo™ meter.
