Always look through the insulin window to
make sure that the
insulin in your pen looks the way it should.
The Penfill®
leaflet will tell you how your type of insulin should look.
Always use the dose counter and the dose pointer to see
how many units you select.
Do not count the pen clicks.
Do not use the insulin scale on the cartridge holder. It only shows
approximately how much insulin is left in your pen.
The dose button should turn easily. Do not force it to turn.
When less than 60 units are left in the cartridge, the dose counter
stops and shows the number of units left. If you need more than
60 units, or if you need more insulin than the units left in your
pen,
see pages 22-23.
