Preparing the Lancing Device
STEP 1: Remove the cap of the lancing
device by twisting it off.
STEP 2: Insert a Sterile Lancet into the
lancet holder of the lancing device and
push down firmly until it is fully seated.
Do not twist the lancet. See Figure 20.
STEP 3: Remove the protective cap from
the lancet by twisting it and then save it
for later use. See Figure 21.
STEP 4: Replace the cap onto the
Lancing Device. Screw the cap until
it is snug but not too tight.
STEP 5: Set the Lancing Level. The
adjustable tip offers five (5) levels of skin
penetration. To select the desired depth,
twist the adjustable tip in either direction
until the number lines up with the arrow.
To select the best depth: 1–2 for soft or thin
skin, 3 for average skin, 4–5 for thick
or callused skin. See Figure 22.
Warning: To reduce the chance of infection:
• Never share a lancet or the lancing device.
• Always use a new, sterile lancet.
• Lancets are for single use only.
• Avoid getting hand lotion, oils, dirt, or debris in or on the
lancets and the Lancing Device.
