Function check
28 If you think your NovoPen 3
PenMate system is not working
properly, follow this procedure:
a. Make sure that the barrel of the
NovoPen device and NovoPen 3
PenMate are screwed together
tightly and that the dose indicator
window on the barrel is aligned
with the yellow push button on
the NovoPen 3 PenMate.
b. Screw on a new NovoFine needle
as described in steps 12 and 13.
c. Do an air shot to remove air
bubbles as described in step 14.
d. DO NOT replace the inner
needle cap. Put the outer
needle cap over the needle.
e. Dispense 20 units into the outer
needle cap.
The insulin should fill the lower part
of the outer needle cap. If the pen
has delivered too much or too little
insulin, repeat the test. If it happens
again, do not use the NovoPen
device. Contact Novo Nordisk Inc. at
the toll free number 1-800-727-6500.
DO NOT try to repair a NovoPen
device or a NovoPen 3 PenMate.
Never use a NovoPen device
or NovoPen 3 PenMate unless
you are sure that they are
working properly.
