Preparing the finger pricker
Setting the penetration depth
You can set the penetration depth of the lancet to 11 dierent levels. The levels are divided into 6 half-
settings and 5 whole settings (0.5–5.5, 0.5 is the lowest, 5.5 is the highest). Set the penetration depth
suitable for you. This allows virtually pain-free collection of blood and control over the amount of blood
needed. The penetration depth indicator on the finger pricker (silver square) indicates the current
penetration depth setting. The higher the number, the greater the penetration depth. The half-settings are
located between the numbers.
If you have no experience with using this finger pricker, we recommend a medium penetration depth
setting such as 3.
