Warning
• If the protective disc on a lancet needle has already been removed, do not use the lancet needle.
• If you drop the lancing device with an inserted lancet needle, carefully pick it up and dispose of the
lancet.
Important
• Use the lancing device only with lancet needles from the same manufacturer. Using other lancet
needles may prevent the lancing device from working properly.
• If you are using a third-party lancing device, please read the accompanying instructions for use.
5.1 Preparing to take a blood sample
1
Choose a part of the body from which to take a blood sample
Using the lancing device, you can take a blood sample from the fingertip. To make the procedure
as painless as possible, do not take samples directly from the centre of the fingertip, but
slightly to either side.
Warning
• In the event of suspected hypoglycaemia: take blood from the fingertip only. Reason:
changes to blood glucose levels can be detected quickly in blood samples taken from the
fingertip.
2
Prepare all parts
Prepare the following items: GL50 evo measuring device (A), test strip box or test strips in
film packaging (C) and sterile lancet needles (D).
Make sure that the ON/OFF switch is in the “ON” position.
3
Wash your hands
Wash your hands with soap and warm water before taking a blood sample. This not only
ensures optimal hygiene but also encourages good blood circulation at the puncture area on
the finger. Dry your hands carefully.
Warning
If you have used alcohol for cleaning, ensure that the area has fully dried prior to measuring.
