14.4 When your insulin pump is dropped

Dropping may harm your insulin pump and damage the seal against
water. Make sure that your insulin pump is not dropped. Use the proper
Accu-Chek Spirit carrying systems for the various daily situations to
prevent dropping.
If your insulin pump is dropped:
• Check that all connections regarding your infusion set are still
tight and reconnect, if necessary
• Check your insulin pump, its sterile products and accessories for
chips and cracks
AND
• Change the cartridge, if necessary.
Check your insulin pump and its sterile products and
accessories for chips and cracks at least once per day,
especially if they have been dropped. Do not use them if
chipped or cracked. In the presence of chips and cracks,
water, dust, insulin, or other foreign substances may
enter your insulin pump and lead to malfunction.
In case of doubt, contact your local Customer Care Area.
