How to prime your InDuo™ insulin doser

•Make sure that a NovoFine® needle is attached (see page 41), the push button is pressed in completely, and the slide is closed. If the slide is not closed, the release button will be locked.

•Press the release button b. You will see that the push button jumps out c.

•Dial 1 unit d (When inserting a new Penfill® start with 8 units).

•Hold the InDuo™ insulin doser with the needle pointing upwards and tap the slide gently with your finger a few times e.

•Press the push button completely in until it locks f.

•A drop of insulin should appear at the needle-tip.

If not, repeat the procedure until a drop of insulin appears. If the slide is opened and closed while it contains a partially filled Penfill® you will need to dial a larger number of units, depending on the amount of insulin left in Penfill®.

Remember that priming is not finished until a drop of insulin appears at the needle-tip.
