Setting Time and Date
Be careful to set the time and date correctly, because the basal rates and all
history information are stored on the basis of time and date set in the pump.
When you travel across time zones, make sure that the time and date are
set correctly.
The time format can be either American or European/Military Time.

Incorrect setting of time and date can lead to incorrect
insulin delivery. Make sure that the time and date of your
insulin pump is programmed correctly to ensure the
correct insulin delivery and data memory. Do not make
therapy decisions based upon a single result in the
insulin pump’s memory.
If you, your doctor, or healthcare team reviews your therapy
data electronically, it is essential that the time and date
of your insulin pump, your blood glucose measurement
system (such as an ACCU-CHEK blood glucose meter),
the PC, and other devices used are set identically. If they
are not, the gathered data might not be meaningful. Check
these devices regularly to ensure that the time and date
settings are identical.
