RESERVOIR + SET MENU

If insulin, or any liquid, gets inside the  tubing connector, it can temporarily 

block the vents that allow the pump to properly prime the infusion set. 

This may result in the delivery of too little or too much insulin, which can 

cause hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. To prevent insulin from getting  

inside the tubing connector of the MiniMed

™

 infusion set, after 

you fill the reservoir make sure you hold the insulin vial upright when you 

remove the reservoir from the transfer guard. If you do not hold the insulin 

vial upright, insulin can get on the top of the reservoir and could transfer liquid into the tubing connector.
