The lancing device can now be used to take the blood
sample. Ensure that the blood remains in a droplet
form and is not smeared.
Blood sample from the fingertip
Place the lancing device firmly against the finger,
slightly to the side of the centre of the fingertip. Press
the release button. Lift the lancing
device from the finger. A round blood
droplet of at least 0.5 microlitres
(approx. 1.2 mm, original size: z) is
required.
Blood sample from an alternative site (AST)
Choose a site that is soft, not next to a bone, with no
visible veins and without excessive body hair. Warm
the puncture site to ensure good circulation, for exam-
ple by lightly massaging the area. Place and hold the
lancing device against the puncture site for a few
seconds and press the release button. Continue to
hold the lancing device against your skin until a round
droplet of blood has formed under the cap. Maintain
the pressure until the blood droplet has reached a size
of at least 0.5 microlitres (approx. 1.2 mm, original
size: z). Lift the lancing device carefully away from
the skin.

If insufficient blood was collected, increase the punc-

Place the protective disk you kept earlier flat on a hard
surface. Pierce the protective disk with the tip of the
needle so that the needle is covered.
