Priming your Autopen 24
It is important to prime the Autopen 24 before
use to remove any air that may be inside the
needle. When using a new cartridge dial 8 units
on the dose selector (fig. 6a/6b).
Peel the protective film from a new pen needle.
Screw the pen needle
straight
onto the cartridge
holder (fig. 5). Remove the outer protective cap
and needle cap from the pen needle.
*If the cartridge contains longer acting NPH
(Basal) insulin, turn the pen
up and down at least 10 times
as per cartridge instructions.
Then attach the needle to the
pen cartridge holder.
Steps 6 & 7 must be followed
before each injection.
