Operation Manual

Note If a Temporary Basal Rate is active at the same time, it is

also cancelled when your pump is put in STOP mode. The

warning W8: BOLUS CANCELLED and the warning W6:

TBR CANCELLED are displayed.

Press f twice to confirm and turn off the first warning.

The second warning appears on the display. Press f

twice to confirm and turn off the second warning. Both

warnings are recorded in the alarm history. See chapter

8 Warning W6: TBR CANCELLED and Warning W8: BOLUS

CANCELLED. Make sure the cancellation was intended

and then put the pump back in RUN mode and program a

new Multiwave Bolus (and / or Temporary Basal Rate), if

needed.

4.5 Programming a Temporary

Basal Rate (TBR)

Your pump allows you to temporarily increase or decrease your

basal rates. This enables you to match your changing insulin

needs due to increased or decreased activity level, illness, or

stress.

Typically, a basal rate is set to 100 %, but you can:

j Increase it to 250 % for up to 24 hours

j Decrease it to 0 % for up to 24 hours

When you increase or decrease your basal rate, each hourly

basal rate for the duration you program is increased or

decreased automatically. The characteristic shape of your basal

rate profile remains and does not become a flat curve, if the

change is larger than 0 %. For 0 % the basal rate profile becomes

a flat line and no insulin (except boluses) is delivered during the

programmed duration.

Discuss programming a Temporary Basal Rate with your doctor

or healthcare team.
