Resumen del manual
This is dependent on country standards. In Canada, the correct unit of measurement is millimoles per liter or “mmol/L.” In other countries the standard may be milligrams per deciliter or “mg/dL.” If a user's meter is set up with the incorrect unit of measure they may have difficulty interpreting their result and this could lead to improper management of their diet or diabetes medication to control blood sugar levels. Currently, with Abbott Diabetes Care meters, the only way to change the “unit of measure” on meters is through a user-initiated change. Abbott Diabetes Care meters do not change units of measure when dropped or when there is a power failure. Please review the following to confirm that you are using the correct unit of measure. For FreeStyle® and FreeStyle Mini™ Users: 1. Press the m button on the meter. The unit of measure will be shown on the display screen. 2. If the unit of measure is incorrect, it is important that you change it. Please refer to any of the following sources for detailed instruction: a. See user manual for meter set-up. b. Review the quick reference guide. c. Call customer care at 1-888-519-6890. Units of Measure Page 1 Abbott A Promise for Life For Precision Xtra™ Users: 1.
