Carefully screw the cover back onto the lancing device. Avoid contact with
the exposed needle. Make sure the cover is fully seated on the lancing
device.
Adjust the puncture depth by rotating the lancing device cover. There are a
total of 6 puncture depth settings. To reduce discomfort, use the lowest
setting that still produces an adequate drop of blood.
Use settings 1 and 2 for delicate skin, 3 and 4 for normal skin, and 5 and 6
for calloused or thick skin.
Note: Greater pressure of the lancing device against the finger will
also increase the puncture depth.
Pull the cocking barrel back to set the lancing device. A click may be heard.
The device is now loaded and ready for obtaining a drop of blood.
