Precautions

Avoiding extreme temperatures

1.Avoid exposure of your pump and remote control to temperatures above 104°F (40°C) or below 32°F (0°C).

2.Insulin solutions freeze near 32°F (0°C) and degrade at high temperatures. If you are outside in cold weather, wear your pump close to your body and cover it with warm clothing. If you are in a warm environment, take measures to keep your pump and insulin cool.

3.Do not steam sterilize or autoclave your pump or remote control.

Avoiding dunking the pump in water

Your pump is watertight but should not be deliberately submerged in water during bathing, swimming, or other water activities. We recommend using an infusion set with a quick release feature to disconnect from the pump before water activities.

Special circumstances

If the pump is dropped

Take care to protect your pump from being dropped.

1.Check that all connections are still tightly in place.

2.Check the LCD, keypad and pump case for cracks or damage.

3.Check infusion set, including cap and tubing for cracks or damage.

4.Review the status screen, basal rates and other pump settings.
