NOTE
• Testing with blood from alternate sites requires the AST cap. This is explained later in the chapter.
• The best depth setting is the lowest number that lets you get enough blood for a test. Try dierent
settings to find the one that is right for you.
• Never share your lancing device with anyone.
• ALWAYS use a new, sterile lancet each time you test. NEVER reuse a lancet that has already been used.
With the ACCU‑CHEK Multiclix lancing device, you simply change the lancet with a twist.
The black cap is for fingertip testing only.
The AST cap is for testing other approved sites on the body, not the fingertip.
A new drum has a blue ring that does not move.
A used drum has two visible red stripes, and the blue ring can rotate on the white drum.
You cannot insert a used drum into the lancing device.
