After the injection, the needle is removed from the skin. The needle is detached from the injection device and disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For each subsequent injection, another disposable needle must be used. Delivery device function checks can be performed with the NovoFine® 32G Tip by using the needle cap as described in the instruction leaflet provided with the pen injection device.

#### (5) INTENDED USE:

The intended use for the modified device remains the same as the predicate device (NovoFine 31G):
