Step 4: Remove the Lancet.

When removing the PENLET® II Cap, be careful not to prick your- self or anyone else. After removing the cap, grasp the two dark gray prongs located near the release button, pointing

the lancet down and away from you. Pull back on the dark gray sliding

barrel until the

lancet drops out. Another way to remove the lancet is to put the

protective disk back on the lancet. Place the disk on a hard surface and gently stick the lancet needle into the protective disk.

Now carefully pull the lancet out. Discard the used lancet in a con- tainer for sharp objects.
