This chapter provides important guidelines on how to use your 
pump safely from day to day.

3.1  Wearing your pump

Attach your pump safely to your body or clothes to prevent 
damage. You can use one of our special carrying systems that 
enable you to carry your pump on or under your clothes. Wear 
your pump under your clothes or directly on your body to protect 
it from hot, cold or wet weather.

c

 CAUTION 

When wearing your pump, prevent any contact with objects that 
could damage it or accidentally press its keys (e.g. key chains, 
keys, pocket knives or coins).

 

3.1.1 When not to wear your pump

Electromagnetic fields and hazardous areas

w

 WARNING 

Do not use your pump near electromagnetic fields such as 
radar or antenna installations, high-voltage sources, X-Ray 
sources, computer tomography, MRI, CAT scan, and all other 
sources of electrical current, as they may cause your pump to 
fail. Insulin delivery may stop and an Error E7: ELECTRONIC 
ERROR may occur.

Always stop your pump, remove and leave it outside these 
areas. See Appendix A: Technical Data for more information 
about electromagnetic fields.
