Wash your hands in hot water for about a minute. This will increase blood circulation in your fingers. Dry your hands.

Note: Doing a blood test without stimulating blood circulation might prove difficult, so please do not skip this step.

Carefully rotate the protective cap of the sterile lancet 360° without pulling it.

Extract and discard the released cap.

Disinfect your “test finger” with the supplied disinfectant paper. Wait a few seconds until the finger is completely dry.

Put the lancet diagonally toward the test finger (the side of the ring finger is recommended) and press down the button.

Make sure the lancet is pressed against the finger the whole time.

Carefully massage the finger. It is important that the massage is done from the palm of the hand to the phalanx, to improve blood flow.

Take the pipette without pressing the bulb. The blood will enter the pipette by capillarity.

Move the pipette away when the black line is reached. If there is not enough blood, continue to massage the finger until the black line is reached.

Remove the cap from the vial bottle included in your kit and deposit the blood into the vial bottle.

Press the pipette bulb 2 or 3 times to ensure that all the blood has moved into the diluent solution.

Replace the screw cap onto the vial and mix well for at least 10 seconds.

Unscrew the blue cap from the dropper vial (leave the white cap tightly screwed on).

Deposit 3 drops into the well shown on the cassette (S).

Wait 5 minutes and then read the results as indicated.
