Step

: Wash Your Hands.

Use warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry
hands thoroughly. To increase blood
flow to your fingertips, massage the
hand from the wrist to the fingertip two
or three times without touching the
puncture site.

Step

: Lance Your Finger.

Choose a spot on the side of a
different finger each time you test.

Repeated punctures in the same
spot may cause soreness and calluses.
Hold the OneTouch

Penlet

Plus

Sampler

firmly

against the

side

your finger. Press the release button.
(Greater pressure of the device against
the finger will also cause a deeper
puncture.)
