Act quickly to respond to abnormal blood glucose. Notify your
healthcare professional of low blood glucose requiring
assistance or of high blood glucose, or of an increased frequency
in low or high blood glucose.
✒
Develop a plan with your healthcare professionals, in the event
that a high or low blood glucose occurs and you are unable to
reach them for advice.
✒
Periodically check your overnight blood glucose levels. Discuss
any out-of-target readings with your healthcare professional.
✒
Always carry an “emergency kit” of insulin and a syringe or pen,
in case you develop a problem with your pump and your insulin
delivery is stopped.
✒
Check the amount of insulin remaining in your reservoir at
least once a day.
✒
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. If you inadvertently submerge your pump in water,
refer to the Troubleshooting section of this user guide.
✒
Do not use hot air to dry your pump. This may damage your
pump’s internal electronics.
✒
Do not use any lubricants on the pump mechanism.
