Warning messages about your blood glucose test result
After performing a blood glucose test, warning messages about your blood glucose test result may be
displayed. Please take careful note of these messages. If your blood glucose test result is too low, you
are prompted to eat a certain amount of fast acting carbohydrates to prevent the risk of hypoglycemia. A
bolus is not calculated in this situation. Treat your low blood glucose as recommended by your healthcare
professional.
Summary

• Carefully check all of your entries.

Immediate action may be necessary.
• Always compare your result with the way you actually feel and adjust the bolus, if necessary.
• Always carry out the actions entered in bolus advice in a timely fashion.
