• Pay attention to the tubing of the infusion set connected to your body. There is a risk
of strangulation if the tubing becomes wrapped around your neck. In case of doubt,
use the shortest tubing length to minimise the risk of strangulation.
Insert the infusion set
Picture 1
Choose a site away from the waistline, bones, scar tissue, belly button and recently used
infusion sites. Wash your hands and clean the infusion site according to instructions from
your healthcare professional. Allow the infusion site to dry before inserting the infusion
set.
Picture 2
Remove the cannula and the transfer set from the ste rile packaging. Hold the two halves
of the coupling so that they form a cross. Fit the parts directly into one another and
connect them in place by turning for one quarter of a turn in a clockwise direction until
they click noticeably and audibly into place.
WARNING
If the two halves of the coupling do not click noticeably and audibly together, use a new
cannula and a new transfer set.
