Priming with fixed prime

Fixed priming provides a pre-determined volume for priming the infusion set soft cannula after the introducer needle is removed. Fixed prime is used after the infusion set has been inserted into your body and the quick release connected to the pump. A Fixed Prime is also used if you have disconnected your quick release and you need to reprime the infusion set.

Refer to your Instructions for Use, for the type of infusion set you are using, for approximate priming volumes. (Priming volumes vary depending on type of infusion set you are using.)

The fixed prime cannot exceed the maximum bolus amount you have set.
