TESTING YOUR BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS 35

sufficient blood for a test, rubbing the area more vigorously

or the brief application of heat may be helpful.

Position the sampler

Press and hold the sampler against the arm for a few seconds.

Press the release button.

Allow blood drop to form

Continue holding the sampler against the skin for a few

seconds until the blood drop forms. Allow enough blood to

form under the cap until you have a blood sample that is

sufficient to fill the confirmation window of the test strip.

If bruising occurs, you may choose to lance a fingertip

instead. If you are having difficulty obtaining blood from the

arm, call the InDuo™ Customer Care Line at 1 888 729-2299

for assistance. The blood sample must be at least 1 microlitre

in volume or you may get an Æ or possible inaccurate test

result. If you must massage the area to obtain more blood,

do not squeeze the site excessively.

Removing the lancet

• To remove the cap, twist it counter clockwise h.

• Optional: To replace the protective disk on the lancet, place

the disk on a hard surface and push the exposed tip into

the protective disk.

æ Always use caution when removing the lancet. Point the

lancet down and away. Push forward on the

ejection/cocking control and eject the lancet directly into

an appropriate container for sharp objects i. Used test

strips can go into the same container. Return the

ejection/cocking control to the middle position. Replace

the cap.
