Due to the large variety of devices with electromagnetic radiation such as cellular
phones, their influence on your insulin pump can not be ruled out completely. It is
advisable to keep your insulin pump at a distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) from
the phone while the phone is in use.
Security systems for transit checks in airports as well as anti-theft monitoring devices
installed in department stores, shops, etc., are harmless and do not affect the func-
tionality of your insulin pump.
Caution: However, if a malfunction occurs, the insulin delivery is stopped
immediately and “Error E7: Electronic Error” occurs.
Please refer to section 7.2.7 “Error E7: Electronic Error” for further information.
Caution: Always make sure that the insulin concentration U100 required
by your Accu-Chek D-TRONplus insulin pump is the only one you are using
in the cartridge. Using an incorrect insulin concentration with your
insulin pump will cause inappropriate insulin delivery. Disregarding this
warning may seriously harm your health or could result in death.
Caution: Incorrect setting of time and date can lead to incorrect insulin
delivery. Make sure that the time and date on your insulin pump are pro-
grammed correctly to ensure the correct insulin delivery and reliable data
in the data memory.
If you, your doctor and/or your health care team reviews your therapy data
electronically, it is essential that time and date on your insulin pump
(please remember your BackUp insulin pump), your blood glucose mea-
surement system (such as an Accu-Chek Blood Glucose Meter), PC and oth-
er used devices are set identically. If this is not the case, the data gathered
may be incorrect. Check regularly that the time and date on your insulin
pump, your blood glucose measurement system, PC and other used devices
are identical.
Inspect the cartridge, adapter and the infusion set for air bubbles at least
every three hours during the day and before you go to sleep. Remove any
air bubbles and, if necessary, change system components.
Please refer to sections 4 “Prepare the cartridge and attach the adapter and infusion
set”, 5.3 “Change the cartridge , adapter and infusion set”, 5.4 “Change the adapter
and infusion set” and 5.5 “Change the infusion set only” for further information.
Caution: If there is no cartridge in the insulin pump, never press against
the flange with a foreign object. This could harm your insulin pump and
may lead to malfunction.
Caution: Check your insulin pump for chips or cracks at least once per
day, especially if it is dropped. Do not use your insulin pump if it is chipped
or cracked. If there are chips or cracks, it is possible that water or other li-
quids, dust, insulin or other foreign substances will enter your insulin pump
and may lead to malfunction.
Avoid chips or cracks by safely attaching your insulin pump to your body or to your
clothes.
You can perform sporting activities while wearing your insulin pump as long as
you protect your insulin pump while engaging in any sporting activities with no body
contact.
Caution: Avoid electromagnetic fields of radar or antenna installa-
tions, high-voltage sources, X-Ray sources, MRI, CAT scan other sources of
electrical current. Do not use your insulin pump in these areas. Electro-
magnetic fields may cause malfunction to your insulin pump. If the pump
is not stopped in these situations, the insulin delivery may be stopped im-
mediately and an error “Error E7: Electonic Error” may occur.
If this situation is unavoidable, you must take off your insulin pump beforehand.
Otherwise strong electromagnetic fields can lead to malfunctions in its electronics
and could result in “Error E7: Electronic Error”.
