Sample Size Example
0.75µL 1.0 µL
Blood sample size above 3.0µL might contaminate the test strip port and the meter.
Blood sample size below 0.75µL may cause an inaccurate result or may prevent a meter reading. An Er4
reading will be displayed if the sample size is too small. In this case, repeat the test with a new test strip.
