Removing the Lancet
When you have finished testing, snap off the cap
from the lancing device.
Pinch the white clip that holds the lancet until
the lancet falls out.
Potential Bruising
It is possible you may experience bruising at the test site. If bruising
does occur, you may choose to lance another test site.
Maintenance
Use isopropyl alcohol or soap and water to wipe the outside of the
lancing device. If you wish, remove the cap, wash it in warm water and
rinse well.
Important:
Do not immerse the body of the lancing device in water or
any other liquid.
• Do not press the test strip against the test site.
• Do not scrape the blood onto the test strip.
• Do not apply blood to the flat side of the test strip.
• Do not apply blood to the test strip when the test strip is out
of the meter.
• Do not put blood or foreign objects into the test strip port.
Waiting for Result
• Do not pull the test strip away until you
hear one beep or see the short line moving
clockwise on your meter screen. This means
you have enough blood and the meter is
reading your glucose.
• If after five seconds your meter does not show a short line moving
around the display screen, the sample may be too small. You may
add blood to the same sample area of the test strip from which you
started for up to 60 seconds from the time of the first application.
• The test result is complete when your blood
glucose test result is shown on the display
screen. If the sound prompt is on you will hear
two beeps.
• The time that the meter takes depends on your
blood glucose level. The higher your glucose
level, the longer it takes to get a result.
