Precautions

Although the pump has multiple safety alarms, it cannot notify you if the set is leaking or the insulin

has lost its potency. It is essential, therefore, that you test your blood glucose levels at least four

times per day. If your blood glucose is out of range, check the pump and the infusion set to ensure that

the necessary amount of insulin is being delivered.

Avoid extreme temperatures

1 Avoid exposure of your pump and remote control to temperatures above 108°F (42°C) or below 34°F

(1°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.

Infusion sets and sites

Avoid using an infusion site that will be irritated by clothing and accessories, or by rigorous

stretching and exercise.
