Note
If you use a soft cannula-type infusion set, you must bolus
to fill the air space in the cannula after removing the
introducer needle and connecting the tubing according to the
instructions for the infusion set you are using. Failure to do
so could result in missed insulin dosing.
See the section 7.5 “Program a bolus” for further information.
Inspect your infusion site at least once or twice each day for
irritation or infection. Signs of infection may include, but are
not limited to, pain, lumps, redness, heat or seepage.
If you see redness or swelling, change your infusion set
and infusion site immediately and contact your doctor or
healthcare team.
You should change your infusion site according to the
instructions for use of the infusion set you are using and
your doctor’s or healthcare team’s recommendations.
Make sure your insulin pump is correctly equipped (including cartridge,
adapter and infusion set) and programmed with your personal settings
approved by your doctor or healthcare team.
After you have carried out all steps required for the selection and prepara-
tion of the infusion site, your insulin pump is ready for operation.
Program your insulin pump with your personal settings prior to starting
insulin pump therapy. See the section 7 “STANDARD user menu” for
further information.
Warning
Incorrect programming of your insulin pump may cause
inappropriate insulin delivery. Your insulin pump must
be programmed with your personal settings prior to
starting insulin pump therapy. Do not operate your
insulin pump without knowing your personal settings.
