Pair the Meter and Insulin Pump
The Accu-Chek Guide Link meter can automatically send blood glucose results to the MiniMed TM 770G system with Bluetooth ® wireless technology. This feature eliminates the need to manually enter your blood glucose result on the insulin pump. Refer to the MiniMed TM 770G System User Guide for pairing instructions.
Set up the Lancing Device
Familiarize yourself with the Accu-Chek FastClix lancing device and the lancet drum.
Get the lancet drum from the pocket in the carry case.
NOTE
Each lancet drum contains 6 sterile lancets. You can perform 6 tests before
replacing them.
Remove the cap by pulling it straight off. Do not twist the cap.
WARNING You must not insert the lancet drum into the lancing device and
simultaneously press the release button or hold the lancing device with the
release button resting on a surface such as a tabletop. This could release a
lancet and inadvertently cause injury.
Insert the lancet drum, white end first, into the lancing device. Push the
drum all the way in until it clicks firmly into place.
NOTE
Do not remove the lancet drum until all 6 lancets are used since the drum
cannot be reused once it has been removed from the lancing device.
Place the cap back on the lancing device. Make sure the notch on the cap lines
up with the notch on the lancing device.
Adjust the lancet depth to a comfortable penetration level. Start at 2. For
tougher skin, dial to a higher number.
Using the lancing device: By pressing the release button all the way down, the lancing device primes and pricks with 1 click.
Perform a Blood Glucose Test
Wash and dry your hands thoroughly before and after you perform a blood
glucose test.
Check the Use By date on the test strip container. Do not use test strips past
the Use By date.
Remove a test strip from the test strip container. Close the cap tightly.
Insert the metallic end of the test strip into the meter.
The meter turns on. Preparing to test appears.
Press the lancing device firmly against the side of your fingertip and press the release button all the way down to prick your finger.
Touch the yellow edge of the test strip to the blood drop. Do not put blood on
top of the test strip. Remove your finger from the test strip when Analyzing
appears. Failure to move your finger away from the test strip could give
inaccurate test results.
The test result appears on the display in less than 4 seconds. Press to
automatically send results to a paired pump. If is not pressed, there will be
a delay in seeing the blood glucose result on the paired pump.
Prepare the lancing device for the next test. Slide the lever over and back
once to advance to the next lancet. The window shows
the number of lancets remaining.
