Function check
If you think that your NovoPen
®
3
is not working properly, follow
this procedure:
■
Check that the mechanical section
and the Penfill
®
holder are
screwed tightly together.
■
Screw on a new NovoFine
®
needle as described in point 7.
■
Prime NovoPen
®
3 as described in
point 8.
■
Replace the outer needle cap
over the needle.
■
Dispense 20 units into the cap.
The insulin should fill the lower
part of the outer needle cap.
If the pen has cleared too much or
too little insulin, repeat the test.
If it happens again, do not use the
pen. Contact your supplier.
Do not try to repair a faulty
NovoPen
®
3.
Never use NovoPen
®
3 unless you
are sure that it is working properly.
