Sound and tactile indication
Rinsapen® II has the following sound and tactile signals to control selection of an accurate dose:
when setting and correcting the dose, each rotating of the dose selector for 1 Unit comes with a click and effort.
The process of insulin administration comes with a sound that stops after administration of the full dose.
Limitations when selecting a dose
Maximum dose for a single injection is limited by the quantity of insulin in the cartridge. If there is not enough insulin in the cartridge for the dose selected, the dose selector will not rotate beyond the available quantity.
Do not use force to rotate the dose selector.
Identify and remember how much insulin is left in the cartridge and make an injection.
Replace the cartridge and the needle and check against the section “Check of efficiency and inflow of insulin” (page 7).
Set the dose selector at the value needed (lacking after previous injection) and administer the rest of insulin to get the full dose.
Installation of the cartridge partially used
Install the cartridge partially used into the cartridge holder.
Pressing with the finger, push the threaded rod fully to the stop. The threaded rod can also be pushed with the cartridge holder with a cartridge inserted into it.
