+    **Quickstart: Importing and using the device VEML6070**
+
+        Here is an example of using the :class:`VEML6070` class.
+        First you will need to import the libraries to use the sensor
+
+        .. code-block:: python
 
-    Example:
+            import board
+            import adafruit_veml6070
 
-    .. code-block:: python
+        Once this is done you can define your `board.I2C` object and define your sensor object
 
-        from board import *
-        import busio, veml6070, time
+        .. code-block:: python
 
-        with busio.I2C(SCL, SDA) as i2c:
-            uv = veml6070.VEML6070(i2c, 'VEML6070_1_T', True)
+            i2c = board.I2C()  # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
+            uv = adafruit_veml6070.VEML6070(i2c)
+
+        Now you have access to the :attr:`uv_raw` attribute and the calculate the risk level
+
+        .. code-block:: python
+
+            uv_raw = uv.uv_raw
+            risk_level = uv.get_index(uv_raw)
 
-            # take 10 readings

-                print('Reading: ', uv_raw, ' | Risk Level: ', risk_level)
