Step 1
Check that the connector hinged cap is in the
open position.

Insert proximal end of catheter into opening of
connector. NOTE Inserting the catheter when
hinged cap is not in the open position may cause
the catheter to not seat properly.

Step 2
Note that there are small teeth on the
underside of the connector lid. If the lid of
the connector is lying on top of the tubing,
these teeth will prevent you from backing the
catheter in all the way.

Ensure that the catheter is fully inserted and
seated to the hinged area of the connector. (see
dotted line) NOTE Catheter may occlude or
leak if not seated past the teeth and
underneath the hub. If this should happen, please
verify the catheter is seated all the way to the
end of the connector.
