Intended use

The OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring

System is intended to be used for the quantitative

measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole

blood samples drawn from the fingertip. The system is

intended to be used by a single patient and should not be

shared.

The OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring

System is intended for self-testing outside the body (in

vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home and

with their healthcare professionals in a clinical setting as

an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.

The OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Blood Glucose Monitoring

System is not to be used for the diagnosis of or screening

of diabetes or for neonatal use.

Yellow= 5mm Red=7mm margin

05983201A_OT_UPF_OB_mmolL_Inside_R2.indd 6 1/27/15 4:35 PM

Test principle

Glucose in the blood sample mixes with the enzyme

FAD-GDH (see page100) in the test strip and a small

electric current is produced. The strength of this current

calculates your blood glucose level. It then displays the

blood glucose result and stores it in the meter memory.

Use only OneTouch Ultra® Plus Control Solutions and Test

Strips with the OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Meter.

BLUETOOTH® SMART wireless

technology

BLUETOOTH® SMART wireless technology is used by

some smartphones and many other devices. Your

OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Meter uses BLUETOOTH® SMART

wireless technology to pair and to send your glucose

results to compatible wireless devices.

The OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Meter is designed to work

with the OneTouchReveal® Mobile App and many other

diabetes applications on compatible wireless devices.

NOTE: Some diabetes management apps, including the

OneTouchReveal® Mobile App, may not be available in

your country. Visit www.LifeScan.co.uk to learn if the

OneTouchReveal® Mobile App is available in your country.

The Range Indicator feature

The OneTouchUltra Plus Flex™ Meter automatically

lets you know if your current result is below, above or

within your range limits. It does this by displaying your

current result with a Range Indicator Arrow, pointing to a

corresponding Range Indicator Color Bar below the meter

display. Use the Range Indicator Arrow and Color Bar

together to interpret your results.

Getting to know your system

3 Possible Range Indicator Displays

A Range Indicator Arrow will

appear just below your result

after each test depending upon

how you set your low and high

range limits in the meter.

Things you should know before

using the Range Indicator feature:

• The meter comes with pre-set

range limits. The pre-set low

range limit is 3.9mmol/L and

the pre-set high range limit is

10.0mmol/L. You can change

these limits as needed to meet

your needs. See page75 for

details on the pre-set range

limits and on editing your

range limits.

• If you decide to change

your range limits, the Range

Indicator Arrows stored with

previous results in meter

memory will not change.

However, any new tests will

display Range Indicator Arrows

which reflect your changes.
