Auto-off
The factory setting for this feature is off (set to 0 hours). This is a safety feature that stops insulin delivery after a
defined time period (from 1 to 24-hours). If the pump detects that no buttons have been pressed for the selected
amount of time, insulin delivery will stop. You may choose to program this feature into your pump based on the
numbers of hours that you usually sleep at night. Discuss what uses and settings are best for you with your
healthcare professional.
1. Go to the AUTO OFF DURATION screen.
Main > Utilities > Alarm > Auto Off
2.
Set the number of hours you want to set and press ACT.
NOTE - If you do not want to use the Auto Off feature, make sure the hour is set to zero (0).
3. The screen will return to the ALARM MENU. The Auto Off feature is now set. Exit the menus.
Low resv alert (Low reservoir warning)
Allows you to program the pump to sound an alert before your reservoir is empty. You can select one of these
warning types:
➠ a specified number of units that remain in the reservoir
➠ a specified maximum amount of time that remains before the reservoir will be empty.
The factory setting for this feature is (20) insulin units.
1. Go to the RESV WARNING TYPE screen.
Main > Utilities > Alarm > Low Resv Warning
2.
Select Insulin units or Time and press ACT.
WARNING: When the pump detects a low reservoir condition during a bolus or prime delivery, the alert
will go off after the delivery is finished. Make sure to check the volume of your reservoir to
ensure enough insulin is available.
