IMPORTANT INFORMATION

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.

• 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.
