Steps:

• Read all directions carefully. Sit down and relax for about 5 minutes. During this time rub your hands to warm them. Select your "middle" or "ring finger." The finger should be warm and callus free. Swab the target area with alcohol;
• Lay selected hand, palm up, against a flat table surface. Holding the lancet device in your hand firmly against the outside tip of your finger, press the trigger down until it clicks. The blood sample flow will begin;
• Point your finger down directly over the Blood Well as shown above. Add sample blood drops until the black fill circle in the well disappears, then wait at least two, but no more that four minutes before proceeding;
• Pull the clear plastic tab on the right side of the test device until you can see the entire arrow. The "O.K." indicator turns purple in about 5 minutes. The "END" indicator turns green when results are ready. Read results only after both timing indicators have changed color.
• Find the very tip of the purple color bar in the Measurement Scale. The resulting number is the test reading. Using the Cholesterol Result Chart, total system cholesterol level expressed in mg/dL will be directly next to the test result number on the conversion chart.
