Omnipod 5 System Notice Concerning Interference
e Omnipod 5 Automated Insulin Delivery System is designed to comply with
Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
1. ese devices may not cause harmful interference.
2. ese devices must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesirable operation.
Caution: Changes or modications not expressly approved by Insulet
Corporation could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Both the Pod and the controller generate, use, and can radiate radio frequency
energy, and may cause harmful interference to radio communications of other
devices. ere are no guarantees that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If the Omnipod 5 System does cause harmful interference to radio
and television reception, the interference may be corrected by one of the following
measures:
• Move or relocate the Omnipod 5 app
• Increase the distance between the Omnipod 5 app and the other device that is
emitting or receiving interference.
Quality of Service
Insulet denes the quality of service of the Omnipod 5 System as the successful
transfer of commands, data, and alarms between the Controller and Pod when
in communication range (within 5 during normal operation) and successful
transfer of CGM readings and errors between the CGM and the pod while
in communication range (line of sight on body). e controller will provide
notication when communication errors between the Pod and controller or the
Pod and CGM are experienced. For additional information on communication
errors in the Omnipod 5 System, see Chapter 21. To maintain quality of service
when other devices operating in 2.4 GHz band are around, the Omnipod 5
System uses the coexistence features provided by Bluetooth® wireless technology.

e information contained in this section (such as separation distances) is, in
general, specically written with regard to the Omnipod 5 System. e numbers
provided will not guarantee faultless operation but should provide reasonable
