3 The Accu-Chek Spirit insulin pump

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.

3.1 Display

Your insulin pump has a full graphic LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) which
displays important current and historical information. Check the display
of your insulin pump at least every three hours during the day, before
you go to sleep, and especially if for any reason you might be unable to
hear the beeps or to feel the vibrations. This is the only way you will be
notified of any changes of your insulin pump in a suitable amount of time.
For your convenience you can flip the display orientation by 180° and
adjust the display contrast if desired. See the sections 7.7.6 "Display
orientation" and 8.5.7 "Display contrast" for further information.
If you discover incomplete characters, numbers or
symbols on the display, put your insulin pump into
STOP and perform a system check by simply removing
the battery for a few seconds. Upon reinsertion of the
battery the system check will occur. If the incomplete
characters, numbers or symbols remain, your insulin
pump needs to be returned since you may not receive
the correct information for operating your pump. Put
your insulin pump into STOP and contact your local
Customer Care Area immediately.
