1.Please unscrew the lancing device
by turning the end cap counter

the lancing device will make it easy
for you to get a drop of blood for
AST.

lancet holder.
3.Twist off the protective top of the
lancet.
4.Close the end cap of the lancing
device and grasp the lancing device
as shown. Slide into locking position.
If necessary, please set the lancing
device for a deeper puncture.

forearm that is clean and dry, away
from bone and free of visible veins
and hair.
