15. ALWAYS use a new, sterile
lancet each time you test.
NEVER reuse a lancet that has
already been used. To load the
next lancet, twist the plunger
one‑quarter turn forward (until
it stops), then twist it back all
the way.
Having.Trouble.Testing.from.Alternate.Sites?
If you experience difficulty obtaining a sufficient blood drop while testing from an alternate site, please
contact the ACCU‑CHEK Customer Care Service Center at 1‑800‑858‑8072 for assistance. We will guide you
through the testing procedure step by step. If you continue to have difficulty, we can also offer you, free of
charge, our ACCU‑CHEK Softclix lancing device. Because the ACCU‑CHEK Softclix lancet has a thicker
diameter needle than the ACCU‑CHEK Multiclix lancet, you may have better success when trying to test
from alternate sites.
16. The lancet counter decreases
one number. For safety
reasons, once you advance to
a new lancet, you cannot go
back to a used lancet.
17. Wash hands thoroughly with
soap and water.
