Note:

Your pump cannot detect infusion set leakage. You must check all parts of the infusion set at least every three hours during the day and before you go to sleep. If you detect any loss of insulin and all parts are correctly tightened, immediately replace the leaking component. Because insulin delivery has been interrupted, check your blood glucose level and take appropriate actions according to your doctor’s or healthcare team’s instructions.
