• The black cap is for fingertip
testing only.
• Remove the cap by pulling it
straight o. Do not twist the
cap.
• The penetration depth
indicator on the comfort dial
shows the current depth
setting. The higher the
number, the deeper the
penetration. The best depth
setting is the lowest number
that lets you get enough
blood for a test. Try dierent
depth settings to find the one
that is right for you.

depth setting of 2. For thick
skin, try a higher depth
setting.
