Filling the Cartridge
To fill a cartridge, have the following materials ready:
• A new 3.15 ml plastic cartridge with protective cap, plunger rod,
filling needle, and
• Insulin at room temperature to minimize formation of air bubbles
Follow the steps below:
1.
Wash your hands.
2. Set the insulin vial on a hard, flat surface, such as a table.
Clean the rubber membrane of the vial using an
antiseptic wipe.
Note:
A filling aid, an optional accessory by Disetronic Medical Systems, helps
you fill an empty ACCU-CHEK 3.15 ml plastic cartridge from your vial of
insulin. Read the instructions that are included with the filling aid to learn
how to use it.
