Alternate Site Testing (AST)
When you want to obtain blood from sites other than the
fingertip, use the clear cap. Screw the clear cap onto the
Lancing Device until it is snug but not too tight, and then
go to Step 6.
STEP 6: Cock the Lancing Device.
Slide the ejection/cocking control back
until it clicks. If it does not click, the
lancing device may have been cocked
when the lancet was inserted. See
Figure 26.
*The Lancing Device is prepared and
ready to lance your finger for a blood sample.
