Actions Required by customers: Before beginning: Do not remove the battery cap unless you have a new battery available. If you have a spare undamaged battery cap, ensure it is available nearby. During routine battery replacement, check the metal contact on your pump battery cap to see if it is loose, damaged, or missing. You can view animated instructions on how to inspect the battery cap contact through our website at www.medtronicdiabetes.com/battery-cap-guide. " If the battery cap contact is damaged, immediately replace it with a spare cap that you received with original pump shipment, and discard the damaged cap. If no spare cap, stop using pump and revert to a back-up plan per healthcare provider s recommendations.
