Troubleshooting

If you can not remove the Pen Cap, gently twist the cap back and forth, and then pull the cap
straight off.

If the Dose Knob is hard to push:
-

Pushing the Dose Knob more slowly will make it easier to inject.

-

Your Needle may be blocked. Put on a new Needle and prime the Pen.

-

You may have dust, food, or liquid inside the Pen. Throw the Pen away and get a new 
Pen.
