Pump alert conditions
Listed below are alerts that indicate a condition that is outside normal pump activity.
LOW RESERVOIR
You can program the pump to sound an alert when either a specified number of units remains or a specified
amount of time remains before the reservoir will be empty.

If you get this alert, do not go to sleep without replacing the battery. The backlight, the remote, and meter
