WARNING: Suspend before low and Suspend on low are not
intended to be a treatment for low blood glucose. Having insulin
suspended when glucose is low may not bring your blood glucose
back to your target range for several hours. In that case, you run
the risk of hypoglycemia. Always confirm your BG readings with
your BG meter and treat according to the recommendations of your
healthcare professional.
The following sections describe how to set up your low SG settings in Manual
Mode. For details on setting up your low SG settings in Manual Mode, see Setting
up the low SG settings, on page 195.
Low limit
The low limit is the value on which the other low SG settings are based. The low
limit can be set from 50 to 90 mg/dL. You can set a different low limit for up to
eight time segments throughout the day or night.
SmartGuard Suspend before low
The SmartGuard Suspend before low feature stops insulin delivery when your SG
values are approaching your low limit. This feature is intended to suspend insulin
delivery to minimize the amount of time spent with low BG values.
The default setting for the Suspend before low feature is off. Consult your
healthcare professional for the Suspend before low setting that is best for you.
