Standard Luer infusion sets are not compatible with the Medtronic
MiniMed Paradigm pump. Medtronic Minimed Paradigm reservoir
and Paradigm infusion sets are specifically designed for use with
the pump. Do not modify your Paradigm reservoir or Paradigm
infusion set.

use with this pump. Only insulin that has been prescribed by your
physician can be used in this pump.

radiation therapy, TAKE YOUR PUMP AND REMOTE CONTROL
OFF, and remove them from the treatment area.

The Paradigm pump is designed to withstand common electro-
static and electromagnetic interference, including airport

security systems.

Monitor your blood glucose levels at least four times per day
and ALWAYS:

before you take insulin
