Important information regarding the use of bolus advice is presented in this chapter. Read it carefully and
completely before you begin using bolus advice.
It is recommended you discuss your bolus advice settings with your healthcare professional prior to setting

The values you entered in the setup of bolus advice
Your current blood glucose test result
The amount of carbohydrates you estimated for a meal
Your current health event status
The blood glucose lowering due to prior correction doses
