Description

The Czech language user guide contained multiple translation errors. The most significant error was that it incorrectly instructs users to verify that the infusion set is connected to the body, when it should instead direct users to confirm that the infusion set is not connected to the body. Following this instruction could result in unintended insulin delivery, potentially leading to a hypoglycemic event.
