IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read Before Use
Dear owner of GlucoRx GO TD-4283 Integrated Blood Glucose Monitoring System,
The system consists of three main products: the meter, test strips and control
solution. These products have been designed, tested, and proven to work
together as a system to provide accurate blood glucose test results. Only use
Nexus test strips and control solution with the GlucoRx GO TD-4283 Integrated
Blood Glucose Monitoring System.
Intended Use
This system is intended for external use (in vitro diagnostic use) only. It is used for
the quantitative measurement of glucose in samples of fresh capillary whole
blood taken from the nger, palm, forearm and upper arm. It is not intended to
diagnose or screen for diabetes mellitus, or to be used on neonates.
It allows blood glucose levels to be measured by people with diabetes at home,
and by healthcare professionals in clinical settings as an aid to monitoring the
eectiveness of diabetes control.
Professionals may test with capillary or venous blood samples: home use is limited

to capillary whole blood testing.
This system provides you with plasma equivalent results and is displayed in
millimoles of glucose per liter of blood (mmol/L).

CAUTION
Every time you perform a control solution test, you have to mark it so that
the test result will NOT be stored in the memory. Failure to do so will mix up
the blood glucose test results with the control solution test results in
memory.

Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood. Blood is
applied to the absorbent hole on the test strip and is automatically drawn into the
reaction cell where the reaction takes place.
The test strip consists of the following parts:
Our Control Solution contains a known amount of glucose that reacts with test
strips. By comparing the result of your control solution test with the expected
range printed on the test strip vial label, you can check that the meter and the
test strips are working together as a system and you are performing the test
correctly. It is very important that you perform this simple check routinely to
make sure you get accurate results.
Insert a Nexus test strip into the test slot with the contact
bars end first and facing up.
(Contact bars must be inserted all the way into the meter
or you may get an inaccurate test result.) The meter turns
on automatically and displays the following in sequence:
CH, and then “ “
Absorbent Hole
Apply a drop of blood here. The blood will be
automatically absorbed.
Conrmation Window
This is where you confirm if enough blood has been
applied to the absorbent hole in the strip.
Test Strip Handle
Hold this part to insert the test strip into the slot
Contact Bars
Insert this end of the test strip into the meter. Push it
in firmly until it will go no further.
HOW TO PERFORM A CONTROL SOLUTION TEST
STEP1. Insert test strip
NOTE
The meter will turn o automatically after 180 seconds without any action, or you
can press and hold the M button for 3 seconds to turn o the meter.

THE TWO MEASURING MODES
The meter provides you with TWO modes for measuring, General and QC.
MODES
General (no symbol)
QC (shows C)
USE WHEN
any time of day, regardless of time since last meal
testing with the control solution
When the “ “ symbol appears on the display, press
M and “C” will appear on the display. When the “C” sign
is displayed, the meter will not store your test result in
memory under “QC”. If you decide not to perform a
control solution test, press M again and the “C” sign
will disappear.
You can switch between each mode by:
1. Start with the meter switched off. Insert a
test strip to turn on the meter. The screen
will display: CH and then “ ” .
2. Press M to switch between General and QC
mode.
WARNING:
1. Please do not change your treatment based on the result without first
consulting your healthcare professional.
2. Turn your meter off by removing the test strip. Discard the used test strip
and lancet carefully according to your local environmental regulations.
Food, medication, illness, stress and exercise can affect blood glucose levels.
Capillary blood at the fingertip reflects these changes faster than capillary blood
at other sites. Thus, when testing blood glucose during or immediately after a
meal, physical exercise, or any other event, take a blood sample from your finger
only.
You can test on a variety of locations on your body.
Important: There are limitations with AST (Alternative Site Testing).
Please consult your healthcare professional before you perform AST.
When to use AST?
STEP 2. Apply Control Solution
STEP 4. Get result
Your blood glucose result will be stored
in the memory automatically.
Shake the control solution vial thoroughly before use. Squeeze out the first drop
and wipe it off, then squeeze out another drop and place it on the tip of the vial
cap. Hold the meter to move the absorbent hole of the test strip to touch the
drop. Once the confirmation window fills completely, the meter will begin
counting down. To avoid contaminating the control solution, do not directly
apply control solution onto a strip.
STEP 3. Read and compare the results
After the meter counts to 0, the result of the control solution test will appear.
Compare the result with the range printed on the test strip vial. The result should
fall within this range.
Out-of-range results
If you continue to have test results fall outside the range printed on the test strip
vial, your meter and strips may not be working properly. Do NOT test your blood.
Contact GlucoRx Customer care on 01483 755133 for help.
STEP 2. Select the appropriate measuring mode by pressing M
For selecting the measurement mode, please refer to the “TWO MEASURING
MODES”
STEP 3. Apply blood sample
Obtain a drop of blood of at least 0.5 μL using the lancing device. Use the clear
cap for alternative sites other than fingers, and refer to the strip package insert
for further details.
Preparing the Lancing Device for Blood Sampling
Please follow the instructions in the lancing device insert for collecting a blood
sample. Never share a lancet of the lancing device. GlucoRx Lancing device is for
self-use only.
STEP 1. Insert the test strip to turn on the meter
Wait for the meter to display the .
Gently apply a drop of blood to the absorbent hole of the test strip at a tilted
angle. The confirmation window should be completely filled if enough blood
sample has been applied. Do NOT remove your finger until you hear a beep sound.
If the confirmation window is not filled completely before your meter begins to
count down, do not add more blood to the test strip. Discard the test strip and
start again. If you have trouble filling the test strip, please call GlucoRx Customer
care on 01483 755133 for assistance.
NOTE:
If you do not apply a blood sample to the test strip within 3 minutes, the
meter will turn itself off. You must remove the strip and insert it back into the
meter to restart the test.

the M button for 3 seconds.
●
When the memory is full, the oldest test result will be replaced by the newest
test result.
●
The control solution results are NOT stored in the memory. Only blood glucose
results will be stored.
Viewing Results
Your Meter stores the 999 most recent blood glucose test results in its
memory. You can review the test results with these easy steps.
STEP 1. Enter the memory mode
With the meter turned off, press M twice. The first
test result will appear, indicating you are in
memory mode.
STEP 2.
When using the meter for the first time “---” will
appear, indicating that there are no test results in
the memory.
STEP 3. Recall test results
If you continue to press M, you can then review
the last 999 tests in the memory.
STEP 4. Exit the memory mode
After displaying the last test result in memory,
press the M again. The meter displays "End" and
then turns off.
Strip Vial Embedding and Replacement
1. When you use your meter first time, the meter
is designed to embed into the strip vial cap at
an upward angle. If the meter is embedded
well, you will hear a “click” afterwards.
2. Open the strip vial cap to take out a new strip
for blood testing.
3. After all the strips have been used up, detach
the meter from the strip vial a downward
angle; dispose the empty strip vial. Replace
with a new strip vial.
