5. Let your arm hang down at your side briefly to allow

blood to flow to your fingertips.

6. Grasp your finger just below the joint closest to the

fingertip, and squeeze for 3 seconds.

7. Obtain blood sample. Use the lancet to obtain a drop

on the side of your finger. Do not obtain the drop
from the pad of your finger. To perform the test,
obtain a small drop of blood resting on your finger.

8.

Touch and hold drop of
blood to the edge of the
strip within the curve. Do
not place the blood drop
on top of the strip.

The blood will be drawn
into the strip automatically. If beeper is turned on,
meter will beep to let you know the test is beginning.
Hold your finger to the edge of the strip until the
yellow window is completely filled with blood.

What if I still see yellow on the test strip? 

If less than 15 seconds

have passed, a second

drop of blood may be applied.

• 

If more than 15 seconds

have passed, remove

the strip and repeat test with a new strip.
