3. Obtaining a blood sample
Use the pre-set lancing device to puncture the
desired site. Wipe off the rst appeared drop of
blood with a clean cotton swab. The size of the drop
should be at least as actual size of the blood drop,
0.5 (μL), which is 0.5 microliter (μL) of volume. After
penetration, discard the rst drop of blood with a
clean cotton swab. Gently squeeze the punctured
area to obtain another drop of blood. Be careful
NOT to smear the blood sample.
4. Apply the sample
Gently apply the drop of blood to the absorbent hole
of the test strip at a tilted angle. When the required
amount of blood sample has been absorbed the
conrmation window will be lled*. Do NOT remove
your nger until the “processing” message appears
on the screen.
