Remove rinse buffer and fill with insulin
The RINSE BUFFER is removed from the Pump fluid system and the system is
filled with insulin. This procedure uses the following volumes in syringes 3, 5,
and 6:
• Syringe 3 with residual RINSE BUFFER from the previous step
• Syringe 5 with 20 ml INSULIN
• Syringe 6 with 30 ml INSULIN
Syringe 3: Rinse Buffer - Residual
1. Prime the needle. Close the stopcock.
2. Obtain a vacuum by pulling back on the plunger until it locks. Press the lock
into the plunger groove and be sure it is firmly secured.
3. Enter the Pump with the refill needle and syringe.
4. Open the stopcock and remove the rinse buffer. After the fluid level stops
moving, wait an additional 30 seconds to make sure all of the RINSE
BUFFER and air is removed.

discard it.
Syringe 5: Insulin - Degassed
