Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
INR result out of expected range / QC failure
HighSymptoms: INR does not match the clinical picture or a lab draw, on-board or liquid QC fails.
Root cause: Expired or heat-damaged strips, a wrong-technique sample (too small / too slow / air), or use outside the operating temperature range.
Error code during a test
MediumSymptoms: Numbered error (e.g. strip / temperature / timing errors) on the display, result suppressed.
Root cause: A specific condition indexed in the meter's error-code list - strip, sample, temperature, or a meter fault.
Strip not detected / will not start
MediumSymptoms: Meter does not recognise the test strip or the code chip.
Root cause: Contaminated strip-guide contacts, a wrong / missing code chip, or a damaged strip.
Battery / power fault
MediumSymptoms: Short battery life, will not power on, will not charge (INRange).
Root cause: Depleted or aged battery.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: INR result questionable / QC fails
- Repeat with a new strip from a correctly stored, in-date vial and a fresh fingerstick applied within seconds.
- Run the liquid QC at the expected level.
- Confirm the code chip matches the strip lot.
- Check the operating temperature.
- If QC fails with good strips, quarantine the lot; if it passes but patient INR still disagrees with the lab, refer the meter.
Symptom: Error code / strip not detected
- Note the error code and look it up in the meter's user guide.
- Clean the strip-guide contacts.
- Fit the correct code chip.
- Retry with a fresh strip.
- Contact Roche if the code persists.
