How to check your last dose

Do not turn the dose button

when you check your last dose.

Turning and then pushing it will overwrite the details of your last
dose. If you turn the dose button by accident, simply turn it back
to “0” before you push it in. This will

not

overwrite the details of

your last dose.

Push the dose button back in

to check your last dose.

First you see the start-up display.

All display elements are

shown to confirm that it is working.

Next, the display shows the details of your last dose.

After

10 seconds, it turns off.

Make sure the dose counter shows “0“ before you start. The
“0” must line up with the dose pointer.

Pull out the dose button.

Message

Cause

Action

The dose
memory has
not
registered
your last
injection.

The dose
memory is
not
activated, or
the battery is
flat.

The battery
is running
low.

Normally, the dose memory will start working again
after your next injection. If not, contact your supplier to
get a new pen.

You can still use the pen for insulin delivery without
using the dose memory.

Pull out the dose button then push it back in, to activate
the dose memory. If the display stays blank, the battery is
flat. Contact your supplier to get a new pen. You can still
use your pen for insulin delivery until you get a new one.

The battery will last four to five years. When it is
running low, the message ”End” will run across the dose
memory display when you check your last dose.
When the battery runs flat, the dose memory will stop
working and only show ”End” running across the
display. After a while, it turns blank. Contact your
supplier to get a new pen. You can still use your pen for
insulin delivery until you get a new one.
