Fingertip Testing
For fingertip sampling, adjust the depth penetration to reduce the discomfort. You
do not need the clear cap for fingertip sampling.
1. Unscrew the lancing device cover from the body of
the lancing device. Insert a sterile lancet into the
lancet holder and push it until the lancet comes to a
complete stop in the lancet holder.
2. Hold the lancet firmly in the lancet holder and twist
the safety tab of the lancet until it loosens. Then pull
the safety tab off the lancet. Save the safety tab for
lancet disposal.
3. Carefully screw the cover back onto the lancing
device. Avoid contact with the exposed needle. Make
sure the cover is fully sealed on the lancing device.
4. Adjust the puncture depth by rotating the lancing
device cover. There are a total of 5 puncture depth
settings. To reduce the discomfort, use the lowest
setting that still produces an adequate drop of blood.
