Product Info

If you turn on Suspend before low, then Alert on low is automatically turned on.
You also have the option to turn on Alert before low.
•If Alert before low is on, your pump alerts you when insulin delivery is
suspended. For details, see Alert before low, on page 182.
• If Alert before low is off, then Suspend before low appears on the screen, but
the pump will not beep or vibrate when insulin delivery is suspended.
• The user can enable Alert before low, Alert on low, Suspend before low, and
Suspend on low. There is an additional fixed low alert at 50 mg/dL that
cannot be turned off.
• Suspend before low and Suspend on low cannot be enabled at the same
time. When either is enabled, the user can enable the Resume basal alert.
• The Low SG alarm appears when your SG values reach or fall below 50 mg/dL.
This alarm cannot be turned off. When the alarm appears on your screen, it
shows your SG value next to your Low SG alarm. In this user guide, the SG
value will be represented as “Low SG XX” for this alarm.
WARNING: Always confirm your sensor glucose readings with
your BG meter and treat according to the recommendations of
your healthcare professional. The Suspend before low feature
uses the sensor glucose value, not your blood glucose value, to
automatically suspend insulin delivery. Your pump automatically
suspends insulin delivery when your sensor glucose is
approaching the low limit. However your blood glucose reading
may be higher or lower than the sensor glucose value.
Assuming that your sensor glucose value is accurate may result
in the delivery of too little or too much insulin, which can cause
hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia.
