Keep this user guide with you.
Intended use:
Principle of Measurement
Blood glucose is measured by an electrical current that is produced when a blood sample mixes with
the reagent (special chemicals) of the test strip. The electrical current changes with the amount of
glucose in the blood sample. The Microlife GlucoTeq meter measures the strength of the electrical
current, calculates your blood glucose level and splays your result in either milligrams of glucose
per deciliter (mg/dL) or millimoles of glucose per liter (mmol/L).
Caution
1.The user should not take any decision of medical relevance without first consulting his or her medical
practitioner.
2.Call your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms that are not consistent with your blood
glucose test results.
3.High altitudes above 3,402 meter (11,161 ft) may affect the test results.
4.Temperatures outside the range of 10°C to 40°C
test outside of these temperature ranges.
5.Do not perform servicing and maintenance while the meter is in use.
6.Modification of this equipment is not allowed. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by
the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
7.Do not use this meter near cellular or cordless telephones in a call, walkie-talkies, garage door
openers, radio transmitters, or other electrical or electronic equipment that are sources of electromag-
netic radiation, as these may interfere with the proper operation of the meter.
Important Health-Related Information
1.Apply only capillary whole blood sample to test your blood glucose. Applying other substances or
plasma, serum will cause wrong results.
2.Severe dehydration and excessive water loss may cause false low results. If you believe you are
suffering from severe dehydration, consult your healthcare prof essional immediately.
3.Test results below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L)*1 indicates low bypoglycemia). Test results
greater than 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L)*2 indicates high blood glucose (hyperglycemia).If your results
are below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), repeat the test, and if the results
are still below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) or above 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L), consult your healthcare
professional immediately.
4.Inaccurate results may occur in severely hypotensive individuals or patients in shock. Inaccurate low
results may occur for individuals experiencing a hyperglycemic-hyperosmolar state, with or without
ketosis. Critically ill patients should not be tested with blood glucose meters.
5.Abnormal red blood cell counts may cause false results. Please consult your healthcare professional
if you do not know your hematocrit level.
6.Interference: Reducing substances occurring in the blood naturally (uric acid, bilirubin) or from thera-
peutic treatments (ascorbic acid, acetaminophen) will not significantly affect Microlife GlucoTeq test
results. However, elevated concentrations of these substances may affect test results. The
compounds listed in the table were found to have no affect at the concentration indicated.

Battery
Microlife GlucoTeq meters come with one (1) CR2032 lithium battery. The battery is manufactured in
charged state and not designed for recharging. Recharging the battery can cause battery leakage, or
in some cases, high pressure rupture.
Warning: Batteries can explode or leak and cause burns if installed backwards, disassembled,
charged or exposed to water, fire or high temperatures.
Low Battery
The meter will alert you when the power is getting low by displaying two different messages:
When the battery symbol AR appears alone on the display, the meter is functional and the results
remain accurate, but you should change the battery as soon as possible.
When the battery symbol AR appears together with the «E-b» symbol on the display, the battery does
not have enough power for a test. You must change the battery before using the meter.
Replacing the battery does not affect the meter’s memory (previous test results stored in
memory). However, the date, time and unit settings may need to be updated; update the settings
by following the steps in «Setting Time and Date».
As with all small objects, the battery should be keaway from small children. If the battery is swal-
lowed, seek medical assistance immediately.
Remove the battery if you are not going to use the device for a long period of time (i.e. 3 months
