User's Manual

• Insulin syringe and fast-acting insulin (with dosage instructions from your
healthcare professional).
• Wallet card (packaged with your pump accessories).
• Adhesive dressing.
• Glucagon emergency kit.
WARNING: Do not use the Bolus Wizard™ to calculate a bolus for a
period of time after giving a manual injection of insulin by syringe
or pen. Manual injections are not accounted for in the active insulin
amount. Therefore, the Bolus Wizard could prompt you to deliver
more insulin than needed. Too much insulin may cause
hypoglycemia. Consult with your healthcare professional for how
long you need to wait after a manual injection of insulin before you
can rely on the active insulin calculation of your Bolus Wizard.

Indications
MiniMed 640G system
The MiniMed 640G system is indicated for the continuous delivery of insulin, at set
and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus in persons requiring
insulin. In addition, the system is indicated for continuous or periodic monitoring
of glucose levels in the fluid under the skin, and detecting possible low and high
glucose episodes. When using a sensor and transmitter, the pump displays
continuous sensor glucose values and stores this data so that it can be analyzed to
track patterns and improve diabetes management. This data can be uploaded to a
computer for analysis of historical glucose values.
The continuous sensor glucose values provided by the MiniMed 640G system are
not intended to be used directly for making therapy adjustments. Rather, they
provide an indication that a confirmation fingerstick measurement may be
required. All therapy adjustments should be based on measurements obtained
using a home blood glucose monitor and not based on the value displayed by the
pump.
