Insert the infusion set
Picture 1
Choose a site away from the waistline, bones, scar tissue, belly button and
recent infusion sites. Wash your hands and clean the infusion site according
to the instructions from your healthcare professional. Allow the infusion site to
dry before the soft cannula is inserted.
Remove the front half of the adhesive backing (F) from the self-adhesive (E) and
pull the protective cover (A) off the introducer needle (C). Grasp the infusion set
between the thumb and middle finger of one hand behind the side clips and
pull back the edge of the self-adhesive with the index finger.
