Remove the protective cap from the lancet with a twisting motion.
P
Press the cap back on the lancing device.
The locating notch in the cap (1) must be directly aligned with the
locating line on the lancing device (2). The cap snaps into place with
an audible CLICK.
Notes
Dropping the lancing device with a lancet inserted may loosen
the lancet in its holder. In that case the lancet is no longer prop-
erly lodged and cannot be used to obtain blood.
In rare cases the lancet may even protrude from the cap. In a
case such as this you might injure yourself on the lancet. There-
fore take great care not to touch the front of the cap.
Should you drop the lancing device, please pick it up with care.
Remove the cap from the lancing device. Take care to avoid the
lancet so as not to injure yourself. Always eject and dispose of
the lancet if the lancing device has been dropped (see Chapter
4.5). Afterwards, re-attach the cap without inserting a lancet.
Press the plunger all the way down twice. Only then insert a lan-
cet again.
i
For blood collection, the cap must be on the lancing device. With-
out this cap, the lancing device cannot be primed, nor can the
lancet be triggered. Instead, the lancet is ejected when you press
the plunger.
