1.7 Using the Micropump System in
Daily Life
The micropump system is intended to be used continuously,
every day in any everyday situation. There are only a few
situations in which you should pay special attention to the system
or remove the micropump in order to protect it. Use the
micropump system only if it is functioning properly and does not
show any signs of damage. Always have alternative therapy
supplies at hand for your own safety.
Note
The micropump system is supplied with two pump bases.
Order a new pump base in time before the operating life of
the first pump base expires so that you always have one in
reserve.
Showering, bathing, swimming, diving
Protect the diabetes manager from moisture and water. The
micropump is splashproof, but it must not be immersed in liquids.
Therefore, remove the micropump from the pump holder before
taking a shower or bath, diving or going for a swim. Place the
protective caps on the cannula support of the infusion assembly
(yellow protective cap) and on the opening with the reservoir
needle (grey protective cap) if you are not using the micropump
temporarily.
Exercise
You can wear the micropump during a variety of physical
activities. Do not wear the pump for sports that involve frequent,
high-impact bodily contact, such as martial arts, football or
hockey. The micropump could suffer damage by being hit or
kicked or if it is hit by a ball.
Sleeping
Place the diabetes manager within reach so that you can hear
reminders and system messages. We recommend that you
recharge the diabetes manager when you go to bed.
Temperature
Do not expose the micropump to direct sunlight, UV radiation or
heat. The operating temperature of the micropump is between
+5 °C and +40 °C. In temperatures outside this range, the insulin
contained in the reservoir could damage the micropump system.
