I. Introduction
Thank you for using the smartLAB®global W nG Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose System. This system was produced in close associa­tion with diabetes health care professionals, hospitals and, most importantly, people with diabetes. The measuring results can help you determine the effects of food, exercise and diabetes medica­tions.
Your smartLAB®global W nG glucose system was designed to be de­pendable, easy-to use, compact, lightweight and portable to assist you in monitoring your blood glucose on a regular basis. Please read this manual thoroughly before you begin testing. It pro­vides you and your diabetes care team with important information and step-by-step direction to use meter correctly. Although your smartLAB®global W nG System is easy to use, you should consult your healthcare professional (this may be your doctor, diabetes nurse educator or pharmacist) for instructions on how to use the system. The only way to obtain accurate results from any system is to make sure you correctly use it. If you have any concerns, please call your authorized distributor in your country during business hours.
The smartLAB®global W nG System is an ANT+ and Bluetooth® Smart device. It supports the ANT+ device profile (V. 2.1) and is kompatible with receiving devices (such as PC and Smartphones) that support the ANT+ weight scale device profile. With the integrated Bluetooth® Smart the smartLAB®global W nG System can also sent data via BLE to a corresponding receiver. You can then transmitt your values wireless to these receiving devices.

Measuring principle
The smartLAB®global W nG Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose System is designed to allow rapid measurement of blood glucose by using an electrochemical biosensor technology. This system employs a disposable dry reagent strip technology, based on the FAD-binding glucose dehydrogenase.
Each test strip features an electrode containing FAD-binding glu­cose dehydrogenase. A capillary blood sample is applied to the col­lecting area of the strip, and is automatically drawn into the reac­tion zone, where the FAD-binding glucose dehydrogenase catalyzes the glucose dehydrogenation. It will produce gluconolactone. During the reaction, a mediator transfers electrons to the electrode surface and generates a current. The amount of the current is pro­portional to the amount of glucose present in the blood sample. After 5 seconds, the smartLAB® global W nG will show glucose con­centration on the screen
Intended use
This blood glucose meter is a self-test IVD medical equipment and intended for both home testing and for professional use to moni­tor the blood glucose value from capillary whole blood and venous whole blood. It is used outside the body only (In-vitro diagnostic use). The meter should be used only with smartLAB®nG blood glu­cose test strips.

Wireless Data transfer
You can connect your smartLAB®global W nG with a partner device which fulfills the standard protocol of ANT+ or BLE wireless data transfer. You can transfer measured blood glucose values automati­cally and wireless to the device. Partner devices could be laptops, smartphones, tablets or any other ANT+ or BLE-capable device. The communication will be enabled by a gateway* which can be installed on PC, Smartphone or Tablet. To allow a data transfer to a portal your smartLAB®global W nG needs to be set by the system. When using the device for the first time and removing the battery protection the display will blink for 5 seconds which indicates that the device is trying to communicate with the gateway to set the device. After each measurement the device will send the data to the gate­way. Saved Data will be transfered automatically every 30 minutes or together with a new Mesaurment. You can also manually transfer measured data. Please go to Chaper “Manually transfer not sent data”. When transfering data, the wireless symbol “W” will flash on the display.
Note: The BLE or ANT+ installation on the according partner device varies and can not be explained in every detail, here. Please read the partner device’s user manual thoroughly on how to activate BLE or ANT and how to connect the device to your smartLAB®global W nG.

Running a blood glucose test
1. Preparations
Before running a blood glucose test, make yourself acquaint with the test strips and the lancing device. Keep all required materials ready for use: your smartLAB®global W nG meter, the smartLAB®nG test strips and the
smartLAB® lancing device including lancets.
Wash your hands thoroughly with warm water before collecting the blood sample. Rinse your hands thoroughly.
2. Switch on the meter
Take a strip out of the vial and immediately close it. Insert the strip into the meter in the direction of the arrow on the strip. The meter turns on automatically. The symbol for applying blood will appear on the display.
Note: If the device could not be set by the gateway after changing the batteries you can still run a blood glucose test. When inserting a test strip the display will show „nod“. After that the symbol for applying blood will appear on the display.
3. Collecting a blood sample
When the blood drop flashes on the display, gen­tly massage the part of your finger tip which you obtain a drop of blood from using the lancing device. Place the lancing device against the pad of your finger. Press the trigger button to activate the lancing de­vice.
Page 19
57
ENGLISH
4. Blood glucose measurement
Hold the application zone of the test strip vertically onto the blood sample. The blood is automatically sucked in the reaction zone of the test strip. Be sure to get enough blood on the strip’s reaction zone, otherwise, an inaccurate reading may result. The signal tone indicates that enough blood entered the reaction zone. The meter will now start with the measurement which will last 5 seconds. The LCD display shows the remaining time of measurement in seconds. Afterwards the note „OK“ indicates a correct measurement. The measurement is finished with another signal beep and the meas­ured value is shown on the display.
5. Storing memories
The displayed result is automatically stored in the memory of the meter. If more than 480 results are reached, the oldest one is de­leted.
After every measurement the meter tries to connect to another pre­installed ANT or BLE partner (please refer to the chapter “Wireless data transfer” in this manual to learn how to connect your device with a ANT or BLE partner). The Wireless-sign will start flashing. If a connection can be established, the result will be transferred auto­matically. In case no connection was found, “ERR” and the Wireless­sign appears on the display. Please make sure that you set up your wireless connection correctly according to the instructions in the manual of your partner device.
Page 20
58
Note: If the glucose value could not be transmitted via ANT or BLE, it will still be saved on the internal memory of your smartLAB®global W nG. Once the connection can be established the next time, all values that have been measured in the meantime will be transferred to the partner device.
6. Discarding used test strips and lancets
Write down the measured result in your personal diabetic log book and take the test strip off the strip slot. The meter turns off. If you don’t take off the test strip, the meter will turn off automatically after 5 minutes.
In order to discard lancets from the smartLAB
®
lancing device, re­move the end cap and carefully pull the used lancet out of the hol­der. Dispose the lancet according to local regulations, in order to avoid hurting other people.
Reading stored test results from memory
You can read the last 20 test results on the internal memory of your smartLAB®global W nG meter by inserting the check strip. The results will be shown chronologically on the display. Further
results can be seen in the corresponding portal.

Understanding your test results
The smartLAB®nG blood glucose test strips are plasma referenced and calibrated for easier comparison to lab results. The unit of blood glucose test results displayed on the screen is either mg/ dL or mmol/L, depending on which unit of measurement you have selected. The mmol/L results will always include a decimal point; mg/dL results do not include a decimal point.
Expected results for non-diabetic adults:
The normal fasting glucose range is 70 to 100 mg/dL (3.9 to 6.1 mmol/L). Two hours after meals, normal glucose values should be less than 120 mg/dL (6.7 mmol/L).
Expected results for diabetic adults:
The normal fasting blood glucose range for an adult with diabetes is 70-130 mg/dL (3.9~7.2 mmol/L)*. Two hours after meals, the blood glucose range for an adult with diabetes is less than 180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L). For further queries about diabetes: please consult your healthcare professional for the blood glucose range appropriate for you.
Unusual test results:
If your blood glucose result doesn‘t match the way you feel, follow these steps, and then repeat the test:
1. Check if the strips are within the expiration date.
2. Be sure that the drop of blood completely filled the reaction zone
of the test strip
Page 23
61
ENGLISH
3. Do a function control test with the smartLAB® check strip
4. Optional: Check meter and test strip performance with the
smartLAB®nG control solution. When test results are still questi­onable or inconsistent, consult your healthcare professional be­fore making any changes to your diabetes medication program.
5. Repeat the Measurement: If the values of the repeated measurements are however questiona­ble and do not match the way you feel, please contact your health care professional before you change your medication.
Note:
1. Extremely high humidity may affect the test results. A relative
humidity greater than 90% may cause inaccurate results.
2. A red blood cell count (Hematocrit) below 30% may cause higher
results. Hematocrit above 55% may cause lower results.
3. Some studies have shown that electromagnetic fields may affect results. Do not test near an operating microwave oven.
Symptoms of high or low blood glucose:
Being aware of the symptoms of high or low blood glucose can help you understand your test results and decide what to do if they seem unusual. A high blood glucose would be greater than 240 mg/dL (13.33 mmol/L). A low blood glucose would be below 60 mg/dL (3.33 mmol/L). Here are the most common symptoms:
High blood glucose (hyperglycemia): fatigue, increased appetite or
Page 24
62
thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision, headache, general ach­ing, or vomiting.
Low blood glucose (hypoglycemia): sweating, trembling, blurred vi­sion, rapid heartbeat, tingling, or numbness around mouth or fin­gertips. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, test your blood glucose. If your blood glucose result is displayed greater than 240 mg/dL (13.33 mmol/L) or below 60 mg/dL (3.33 mmol/L) and you have symptoms of low or high blood glucose, contact your doc­tor immediately. If your blood glucose result does not match how you feel, follow the steps under „Unusual Test Results.“
Comparing your meter‘s result to a lab result:
A common question is how the blood glucose results on your meter compare to the lab results. Your blood glucose can change quickly, especially after eating, taking medication, or exercising. If you test yourself in the morning, then go to the doctor’s office for a blood glucose test. The results will probably not match, even if you are fasting. This is typically not a problem with your meter, it just means that time has elapsed and your blood glucose has changed.
If you want to compare your meter result to the lab result, you must be fasting. Bring your meter to the doctor’s office, and test yourself by fingertips within five minutes of having blood drawn from your arm by a healthcare professional. Keep in mind that the lab could use different technology than smartLAB®global W nG blood glucose meter, and that blood glucose meters for self testing generally read somewhat lower or higher than the lab result. For accuracy and pre­cision data and for important information on limitations, see the instructions that come with your test strips.

4. Understanding control test results
The label on your test strip vial shows the acceptable ranges for the
smartLAB®nG control solutions. The result you get should be inside
this range. Make sure you compare the result to the correct level of control. When the control result is inside the range on the test strip vial, your test strips and your meter are working properly. If your control result is not inside the acceptable range (printed on your test strip vial), here are some things you can do to solve the problem:
Problem Solution
Was the test strip exposed to open air for a long period of time?
Repeat the control test with properly stored strips.
Was the test strip vial capped tightly? Or was test strip cap left open?
If the cap was not tight, or the bottle was left uncapped, open a new bottle of test strips. Do not reuse the strips from the affected bottle.
Does the meter work properly? You can use the check strip to verify
the meter’s functions.
Is the control solution expired or conta­minated?
Replace with new control solution to check the performance of your glu­cose meter.
Were test strips and control solution stored in a cool and dry place?

Limitations of the measurement procedure
1. DO NOT use serum or plasma sample.
2. DO NOT use neonate blood sample.
3. DO NOT use anticoagulant NaF or potassium oxalate for venous
sample preparation.
4. Extreme humidity may affect the results. A relative humidity gre-
ater than 90% may cause incorrect results.
5. The system is designed to be used at temperatures between 10°C
and 40°C (50°F and 104°F). Outside this range, the system may
yield erroneous results.
6. DO NOT reuse the test strips. The test strips are intended for
single use only.
7. DO NOT use iodoacetic acid, fluoride or sodium fluoride/oxalate
as a preservative for blood specimens.
8. Hematocrit:
Test strip results are not significantly affected by hematocrits in
range of 30% to 55%. Hematocrit levels less than 30% may cause incorrect high readings and hematocrit levels greater than 55% may cause incorrect low readings. If you do not know your hema­tocrit level, consult your healthcare professional.
9. Critically ill patients should not be tested with smartLAB®nG
blood glucose meters.
10. DO NOT use during xylose absorption testing. Xylose in the blood
will interfere Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose System.

11. Patients undergoing oxygen therapy may have inaccurate re-
sults.
12. Altitude up to 3050 meters above sea level has no effect on
readings.
13. Test results may be false if the patient is severely dehydrated or
severely hypertensive, in shock, or in hypoglycemic-hyperosmo-
lar state (with or without ketosis). Critically ill patients should not be tested with home-use blood glucose meter.
14. Elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels may interfere with
the way light is reflected producing erroneous meter results.
15. Recent studies have shown that EMI can cause electronic medi-
cal device performance degradation and could lead to inappro­priate therapy.
16. Lipemic samples: Cholesterol level up to 500 mg/dL (12.92
mmol/L) and triglycerides up to 3,000 mg/dL (33.6mmol/L) do not affect the results. Grossly lipemic patient samples have not been tested and are not recommended for testing with smartLAB®global W nG Blood Glucose Meter.
