Inserting the reservoir in your pump
If your reservoir is already inserted in your pump, continue to the next section, “Manual prime.”
You must do these steps in the order described. Your pump screen will show instructions to help you with these
steps. If you are practicing, do NOT insert the reservoir in your pump.
1. If you are using the pump for the first time, remove the shipping cap from the reservoir compartment.
4. Attach the activity guard, if desired.
5. You must now do a manual prime as described in the next section.
CAUTION: You must rewind your pump before installing a new reservoir. As part of the pump’s function,
it measures the reservoir volume. To ensure correct volume measurements, your pump has been
designed to require a rewind after you change your reservoir.
WARNING: Do not insert the reservoir in the pump if you did not rewind. Doing so could result in
inaccurate insulin delivery.
Never insert the reservoir into the pump while the tubing is connected to your body.
Doing so could result in an accidental infusion of insulin.
2. Insert the reservoir into the top of the pump case. 3. Turn the tubing connector approximately
1/2-turn clockwise until the connector is seated.
The tubing connector should be aligned
horizontally with the pump case as shown here.
