WARNING: Potential Biohazard
The MICROLET 2 lancing device is intended for self-
testing by a single patient. It must not be used on more
than one person due to the risk of infection.
1. Remove the endcap from the
MICROLET 2 lancing device
with your thumb on the
grip indent as shown. Snap
the endcap off from top
tobottom.
Use a new MICROLET lancet each time you test because it
is no longer sterile after use.
Read the MICROLET 2 lancing device insert for complete
instructions. If you are using a different lancing device, see that
manufacturer’s instructions for use. For Alternative Site Testing
instructions, see page 19.
