8.1 Replacing the finger pricker with a blanking plate
The Accu-Chek Softclix Plus finger pricker is intended for patient
self-monitoring by a single person.
It must not be used to collect blood in a multi-patient setting as it
does not incorporate any features to guard against cross-infec-
tion.
Therefore, undock the finger pricker from the meter.
Hold the meter so its reverse side is facing upwards.
Push the slide button in the direction indicated by the arrow (1) and
hold it there.
Slide the finger pricker out in the direction indicated by the arrow
(2).
Instead of the finger pricker you can use a blanking plate which is avail-
able from your local customer support centre.
Hold the meter so it is horizontal, with the recess for docking the
finger pricker pointing upwards.
Slide the blanking plate over the recess from the left along the
meter in the direction indicated by the arrow.
The guides along the inside of the recess must engage with the
grooves along the blanking plate. The blanking plate is properly
attached when it locks into place with an audible CLICK.
