Testing blood glucose
Firmly press the finger pricker against the chosen puncture site.
You will feel the slightly raised ring against your skin. This is the pin-
hole through which the tip of the lancet emerges.
Press the plunger all the way down.
This triggers the lancet, which penetrates the skin.
Using gentle pressure, massage the finger towards the fingertip to
encourage a drop of blood to form.
