1. Pull off the cap from the Accu-Chek
Softclix instrument.
2. Insert a new Softclix lancet as far as it will
go into the lancet holder and push it in until
it clicks.
3. To remove the protective cap, twist and then
pull it.
4. Press the Accu-ChekSoftclix cap on again
until it clicks. Be sure to align the notch on
the cap with centre of the semi-circular
cut-out on the ejector.
5. First check that you have set the desired
penetration depth. Press in the priming
button until it clicks. Be careful not to press
the release button at the same time. The
lancing device is primed when a yellow dot
appears in the transparent release button.
6. Wash and dry hands thoroughly. Milk the
blood from the wrist down to the end of the
fingers. Hold the Accu-Chek Softclix against
the finger tip - or you can use your ear lobe -
and press gently. You will feel the thin ring
around the opening of the cap and sense
the exact point of penetration. Press the
release button.
