Open the cannula pack as indicated on
the packaging. Push the cannula assembly
into the cannula inserter as shown in
Figure 54 until the cannula assembly is
in the cocked position and you hear two
“click” sounds. You should see that the
cannula assembly is connected firmly to
the cannula inserter and the inserter is
held firmly in the cocked position.
Front Back
Infusion sets are comprised of a
cannula pack and base. Be sure to
use only infusion accessories from
MicroTech such as HRN-S-60, HRN-S-90,
HRN-H-45, or HRN-H-65.
Note
Firstly wash your hands. Then use an
alcohol wipe to clean the infusion site area,
removing any oils/dirt. Allow it to air dry.
Remove the pump base from its packaging
and place it on one of the suggested areas
shown in Figure 53 (abdomen, upper arm,
thigh, lower back.) Avoid sites that may rub
against other objects like belts, waistbands
or tight clothing. Also make sure that your
infusion site is at least 2-3cm away from your
navel. Do not use the abdomen if you are in
your 3rd trimester of pregnancy.
