Roche Accu-Check Insight - Filling the Infusion Set Tubing and Cannula

30
After you connect the adapter of a new infusion set, it is essential
that you fill the infusion set tubing with insulin. Make sure it is
free of air bubbles.
By default, the pump stops filling at 14 units of insulin. If no
insulin emerges from the connector, or if there are air bubbles in
the tubing after filling, repeat the filling process until the infusion
set is bubble-free and completely filled with insulin. When insulin
appears at the tip of the connector, press q to stop filling. The
amount of insulin used for filling is not added to the pump’s
history of daily insulin totals. You will learn how to adjust the fill
amount in the chapter about Settings. See chapter8.4.3, page125.

cannula
w WARNING
Never fill an infusion set that is connected to your body, as
you risk uncontrolled insulin delivery. Always follow the
instructions for use for the infusion set you are using.
w WARNING
Air bubbles in the cartridge and infusion set may result in the
infusion of air instead of insulin. If this happens, your body will
not receive the required amount of insulin. Remove bubbles
when you fill the cartridge and the infusion set, while the
infusion set is disconnected from your body.
