Please follow the suggestions below before obtaining a drop of blood:
● Wash and dry your hands before starting.
● Select the puncture site either at fingertips or another body parts
(please see section "Alternative Site Testing" (AST) on how to select the
appropriate sites).
● Clean the puncture site using cotton moistened with 70% alcohol and
let it air dry.
● Rub the puncture site for about 20 seconds before penetration.
● Use a clear cap (included in the kit) while setting up the lancing device.
NOTE:
• Choose a different spot each time you test. Repeated punctures at the same
spot may cause soreness and calluses.
• Please consult your health care professional before you begin AST.
• It is recommended that you discard the first drop of blood as it might contain
tissue fluid, which may affect the test result.

● Fingertip testing
Press the lancing device tip firmly against
the lower side of your fingertip. Press the
release button to prick your finger, you
will hear a click which indicates that the
puncture is complete.
● Blood from sites other than the
fingertip
Replace the lancing device cap with the
clear cap for AST. Pull the cocking control
back until it clicks. When lancing the
forearm, upper arm or hand, avoid lancing
the areas with obvious veins because of
excessive bleeding.
