WARNING
Ensure clean application. Do not touch the
soft cannula or introducer needle. Make sure
that the soft cannula is fully inserted into the
subcutaneous tissue and not kinked at the skin
surface.
Once the introducer needle punctures the skin,
the soft cannula must be quickly pushed in the
rest of the way, or it may kink upon insertion,
causing reduced or blocked insulin delivery.
