Selftest
Selftest is a safety utility that allows you to check if your pump is operating properly. This self-
diagnostic feature can be used for maintenance or to check your pump if it operates unusually.
During selftest, your pump will automatically run internal tests, including a check for proper
operation of the beep and vibrate modes. The selftest is additional to the routine tests that run
independently while the pump operates.
Contact the Medtronic MiniMed 24 Hour HelpLine if any of the tests do not occur as described here.
NOTE - If the pump detects a condition such as low battery, the selftest will not finish. A message
will appear to show the condition that caused the test to stop.
