Cleaning the lancing device

Clean your lancing device regularly to keep it in good working condition.
If any blood gets on it, always wipe this away immediately. Clean the
outside of the lancing device only. Wipe it once a week with a cloth
lightly moistened with 70 % ethanol or 70 % isopropanol (available from
your pharmacist).
In addition, thoroughly wipe the inside of the cap using a cotton bud
lightly moistened with one of the two cleaning fluids.
Notes
After cleaning, allow the lancing device time to dry thoroughly.
Never dip the lancing device in cleaning liquid. Doing so may
damage the internal parts of the lancing device so affecting its
operation.
Use only 70 % ethanol or 70 % isopropanol to clean the lancing
device. Other cleaning agents may attack the plastic and stop the
lancing device from operating properly.
