NOTE: Lancets are for one-time use only. Use a new, sterile lancet
each time you test. Test different areas on your fingertips to avoid
developing calluses. Remove the used lancet from the lancing de-
vice. Follow your local disposal regulations where applicable.
WARNING: Your lancing device is for your personal use only. DO
NOT share with others. Sharing the lancing device or lancets can
transmit serious, even grave infections. To avoid accidental sticks,
do not store used lancets in the device after testing or arm the lanc-
ing device with a new sterile lancet unless ready to use.
NOTE: Do not press the test strip directly against the skin. Touch
the test strip gently to the blood drop.
