GlucoMen Day PENCAP is clipped onto the insulin pen using the sleeve,
hinge mechanism and mounting mechanism.
The unique design of the sleeve means that the Device will only fit properly
and operate correctly on the designated model of pen.
The abbreviation for the pen name the Device is designated for, is embos-
sed on the sleeve.

Day PENCAP together with their abbreviations. The detection threshold
(i.e. the lowest dose injection the Device can detect) for each pen model is
also given in the table. For information on how to handle dose units below
