Chapter 2: The Accu‑Chek FastClix Lancing Device
Using the Accu‑Chek FastClix Lancing Device
• The black cap is for fingertip testing only.
• Remember that the opening where the lancet comes out is not in the center of the
cap.
• Remove the cap by pulling it straight off. Do not twist the cap.
• A new lancet drum is dark gray with a white end.
• A used lancet drum has a visible red stripe on the white end.
• You cannot reuse a used lancet drum.
• Do not remove the lancet drum until you have used all 6 lancets.
• The penetration depth indicator on the comfort dial shows the current depth
setting. The higher the number, the deeper the penetration. The best depth setting
is the lowest number that lets you get enough blood for a test. Try different depth
settings to find the one that is right for you.
• For soft skin, we suggest a depth setting of 2. For thick skin, try a higher depth
setting.

Questions and answers
My meter keeps saying error I have changed the batteries
Your Accu-Chek Guide meter may show an error message after changing the batteries due to several reasons:
1. Incorrect Battery Installation – Ensure the new batteries are correctly inserted with the (+) side facing up and properly positioned under the black tabs.
2. Expired or Low-Quality Batteries – Use two new, unexpired CR2032 lithium coin cell batteries of the same brand.
3. Incomplete Battery Replacement – Always replace both batteries at the same time.
4. Battery Compartment Not Secure – Ensure the battery door is fully closed and snapped into place.
5. Meter Needs Reset – Try removing the batteries, waiting a few minutes, and reinserting them.
If the issue persists, perform a control test to check accuracy. If problems continue, contact Accu-Chek Customer Care.
