Intended use
The OneTouch® UltraMini® Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose
(sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood. The OneTouch® UltraMini® System is intended for self-testing outside the body (in vitro
diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home and by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting as an aid to monitor the
eectiveness of diabetes control. It should not be used for the diagnosis of diabetes or for testing newborns.
Test principle
Glucose in the blood sample mixes with special chemicals in the test strip and a small electric current is produced. The strength
of this current changes with the amount of glucose in the blood sample. Your meter measures the current, calculates your blood
glucose level, displays the result, and stores it in its memory.

Coding your meter
Have these things ready when you test your blood glucose level:
• OneTouch® UltraMini® Meter
• OneTouch® Ultra® Test Strips
NOTE:
• Use only OneTouch® Ultra® Test Strips with your OneTouch® UltraMini® Meter.
• Make sure your meter and test strips are about the same temperature before you test.
• Testing must be done within the operating temperature range (6–44°C). For the most accurate results, try to test as close to room
temperature (20–25°C) as you can.
CAUTION: If you cannot test due to a problem with your testing supplies, contact your healthcare professional or the OneTouch®
Customer Care Line at 1 800 663-5521. Failure to test could delay treatment decisions and lead to a serious medical condition.
Check the code on the test strip vial before inserting the test strip
Code numbers are used to calibrate your meter with the test strips you are using to obtain accurate test results.
You must code the meter before using it for the rst time and then every time you change to another vial of
test strips.
CAUTION: The test strip vial contains drying agents that are harmful if inhaled or swallowed
and may cause skin or eye irritation.
Insert a test strip to turn on the meter
Start with the meter o. If you have turned the meter on to change settings or review past results, turn it o.
Remove a test strip from its vial. With clean, dry hands, you may touch the test strip anywhere on its surface.
Do Not bend, cut or modify the test strips in any way. Use each test strip immediately after removing it from
the vial.
