7.1.4 Alert A4: Cartridge/Adapter Alert
The unique force sensor of your Accu-Chek D-TRONplus insulin pump continuously
measures the pressure on the cartridge plunger. This feature determines whether a
cartridge is present in the cartridge compartment and whether the adapter is prop-
erly connected. The adapter itself features a valve which prevents uncontrolled deliv-
ery of insulin. If this valve is damaged, an “Alert A4: Cartridge/Adapter Alert”
occurs.
If your insulin pump undergoes a thermal shock, that is to say a rapid major decrease
of temperature, an “Alert A4: Cartridge/Adapter Alert” occurs.
If the insulin delivery is impaired by a leak in the cartridge or in the adapter, an “Alert
A4: Cartridge/Adapter Alert” occurs.
This alert also occurs when your insulin pump is started and no cartridge is in the car-
tridge compartment, when the adapter is connected incorrectly, the piston rod is not
in contact with the cartridge plunger or the piston rod is accidentally returned.
Caution:
If an “Alert A4: Cartridge/Adapter Alert” occurs, immediately
check your blood glucose level, because insulin delivery may have been
interrupted. If your blood glucose level is high, take the appropriate ac-
tions according to your health care team’s instructions.
With a disconnectable infusion set do the following:
1. Silence and confirm the alert by pressing
f
twice.
2.
Check your blood glucose level. If it is high, take the
appropriate actions according to your health care
team’s instructions.
3. Disconnect the infusion set from the site.
4.
If no cartridge is in the cartridge compartment:
Remove the adapter and infusion set tubing from your insulin
pump.
