If you are experiencing symptoms that are not consistent with your
blood glucose test results and you have followed all instructions
described in this owner’s manual, call your healthcare professional.
Test results below 60 mg/dL (3.3 mmol/L) indicate low blood glucose
(hypoglycemia). Test results greater than 240 mg/dL (13.3 mmol/L)
indicate high blood glucose (hyperglycemia). If your results are below
60 mg/dL or above 240 mg/dL, 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.
