Lifescan In Duo manual Important Information

Page 67

•Take the needle off the InDuo™ insulin doser immediately after each injection. If you do not remove it, temperature changes may cause liquid to leak out of the needle. With an insulin suspension (cloudy insulin), this may change the concentration of the insulin.

•Do not start injecting an insulin suspension (cloudy insulin) if the rubber stopper is below the arrow marks on the slide. The glass ball must have adequate space to resuspend the insulin. Replace the Penfill® cartridge.

•Do not use the residual scale to measure the amount of insulin to be injected.

•Do not try to repair a faulty InDuo™ component.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION 67

•The InDuo™ System must only be used according to the instructions in this manual. The manufacturer will not be held responsible for any equipment problems if you have not followed these instructions.

•Healthcare professionals, relatives and other caregivers should follow general precautionary measures for removal and disposal of needles to minimize the risk of unintended needle penetration.

•Keep the InDuo™ meter, OneTouch® Ultra Test Strips, and OneTouch® Ultra Control Solution at the same relative temperature before testing. Testing before the meter, strips, and control solution reach the same relative temperature may result in an inaccurate glucose reading.
