5.3 Evaluating a blood sugar measured value

Your Blood Glucose Measuring device can process measured values between 1.1 and
35 mmol/L. The warning message "Lo" is displayed for measured values below
1.1 mmol/L. The warning message "Hi" is displayed for a measured value above
35 mmol/L.

Note

• If you suspect that the blood sugar values are incorrect, first repeat the test and, if

necessary, perform a function test using the control solution. If you consistently have
reason to doubt the results, contact your doctor.
