WARNING
Read the instructions carefully before use. We
recommend that you consult your insulin pump
manual for information regarding pump therapy.
• When using the infusion set for the first time,
your doctor or healthcare team must be present.
• This device remains sterile until the package is
opened or becomes damaged. Do not use if the
sterile package has been opened or damaged.
• Protect the product from excessive humidity,
sunlight and heat. Store at room temperature.
• Dispose of your infusion set after use according
to local regulations. Do not clean or re-sterilize.
• The infusion set is for subcutaneous use only.
• Always screw the luer-lock connector firmly into
the pump adapter. If this is not done, a loose
connection between the infusion set and the
pump could cause leakage. Avoid using tools
to screw the luer-lock connector into place,
otherwise damage could result to the luer-lock
connector.
• Do not leave air bubbles in the infusion set.
Prime carefully.
• A small percentage of the Accu-Chek
Ultraflex infusion sets using soft cannulas can
accidentally become crimped during insertion or
displaced while in use. If this should occur, use
a new infusion set immediately.
• Check the infusion site frequently to make
sure the soft cannula remains firmly in place.
