Install battery
CAUTION: Do not use a rechargeable or carbon zinc battery in your pump. For best results use a new
Energizer AAA alkaline battery, size E92, type LR03.
Medtronic Diabetes designed the pump to only accept a new battery. As a safety measure, if you install a
battery that does not have full power, the WEAK BATTERY or FAILED BATT TEST alarm may sound. If you
receive a WEAK BATTERY alarm, respond to the alarm and continue. The pump will still operate normally,
but with a decreased battery life. The pump uses one AAA alkaline battery.
1 Make sure all the following apply:
• Clear (ESC, ACT) any alarms and/or alerts before removing and replacing the battery.
• Make sure the pump is at the HOME (idle) screen when you remove the battery.
• Do NOT remove the battery during a bolus or Fill Cannula delivery.
2 Use the edge of a coin to remove the battery cap. Turn the cap in a counter-clockwise direction.
3 Remove the old battery and dispose of it per the
disposable requirements of your state or country. Put
the new battery in the pump with the negative end [(-)
symbol] going in first. Check the label on the back of
the pump to make sure the battery is inserted
correctly.
NOTE: Do not use batteries that have been in cold
storage, such as in the refrigerator or in your car during winter in cold climates.

horizontally with the pump as shown here:
CAUTION: Do NOT over-tighten the battery cap. You should not turn
the cap more than four half turns. If you over-tighten the cap you
may not be able to remove it, and you can damage your pump.
