4 Inserting the lancet in the lancing device
1.
Wash your hands with soap
and warm water. Rinse and
dry thoroughly. If needed,
you can also rub the area
of skin you have chosen for
the blood sample with a
special cleansing pad.
2.
Open the lancing device by twisting
the protective cap in a clockwise
direction and then remove it. Insert
the lancet all the way (without turning
it) into the lancing device. Twist off
the protective cap on the lancet
carefully.
3.
Replace the protective
cap on the lancing de-
vice and tighten by
turning it in an anti-
clockwise direction.
To use the AST cap,
consult the instruction
manual.
