your other hand, hold the endcap dial
and gently snap off the endcap from
top to bottom.
3. Hold a MICROLET lancet and rotate the protective
cap 1/4 turn but do
not remove. Always
use M I C R O L ET

Firmly push the
lancet straight into
the lancet holder.
After you hear or
feel the “click”, continue pushing until
the lancet comes to
a complete stop. Twist off the
protective cap and save for disposal
of used lancet.
4. Replace the adjustable endcap.
5. Select any of the five puncture
depth settings by rotating the dial
on the endcap to a smaller drop for
a shallower puncture or larger drop
for a deeper puncture. Adjusting the
amount of pressure applied to the
puncture site will also affect puncture depth.
6. Place the MICROLET2 lancing device firmly against
the puncture site
and press the blue
release button. The
sides of the fingertips may be more
comfortable.

wait a few seconds,
then stroke your
hand and finger
toward the puncture site. Do not
squeeze around the
puncture site.

dry tissue and maintain pressure on
the site until the bleeding stops.

carefully remove the endcap by
holding the endcap dial and snapping
the endcap off.
Place the protective cap that you
saved when you loaded the lancet on
a flat surface with the Bayer logo face
down. With the used lancet still in the

device, push the
lancet into the
center of the cap.
Point the device
toward a container
for sharp objects
(an empty plastic bottle with a lid will
work.) Label the container properly
and keep out of the reach of children.
While pressing the
blue release button
, firmly pull
the blue cocking
handle
past resistance and the
lancet will fall into
the container.

Potential Biohazard: Always dispose of the used lancet properly to
prevent injury or contamination to
others. Use a new MICROLET lancet each time you test . After the
lancet is used, it is no longer sterile and has the potential to spread
infection. All products or objects
which come in contact with human
blood, even after cleaning, should
be handled as if capable of transmitting viral diseases.
Clean your MICROLET2 lancing
device after every
use with a solution
of water and mild
detergent or a solution of nine parts
water and one part
bleach. Slightly moisten a tissue
with the solution. Important: Avoid
excess moisture. Remove the
endcap. Clean the exterior of the
device and interior and exterior of
the endcap. Wipe dry with a tissue
before use. Replace the endcap.
