The customer returned the suspected contour® next gen meter (serial # (b)(6)) for evaluation.No test strips were returned.Upon in-house investigation, the meter switched on as expected, and no anomalies were observed when customer service mode was run.The meter was then placed in the contour® next testing fixture to simulate a blood test.The fixture simulated a blood glucose level of 76 mg/dl, and the test result was successfully stored in the meter's memory with the correct date and time.The device performed as expected.Section b5 has been updated to reflect the correct verbiage describing the issue.
