Apply the Pod
e next step is to apply the Pod to your body:
1. Remove the Pod's plastic needle cap on the
underside of the Pod by placing your thumb on
the bottom (at edge) of the Pod’s plastic cap and
pulling the cap upwards. e cap snaps o. row

When you remove the Pod needle cap, a drop of
insulin may be visible at the end of the cannula or in
the well.
2. If any of the following apply, press Discard, and then dispose of the Pod and
begin again with a new Pod:

b. e Pod or its adhesive pad is wet, dirty or damaged
c. e cannula extends beyond the adhesive backing when the Pod needle
cap is removed
Warning: Verify that the cannula does not extend beyond the adhesive
backing once the needle cap is removed.
3. Using the pull tabs, remove and discard the white
paper backing from the adhesive tape.
4. Press Discard and dispose of the Pod if the adhesive
pad is folded, torn or damaged, and begin again
with a new Pod.
