message when you install the new battery. Do the following steps:

saved settings to the pump by using the Restore Settings option under User Settings in the UTILITIES MENU

section of the Utilities chapter.

Why doesn't my pump battery last very long?
A short battery life does not mean that something is wrong with your pump. Battery life in your pump is variable
and based on the conditions below:
The brand of battery you use (we recommend Energizer).
The storage and/or handling of the battery before use (avoid high or low temperatures).
The usage of pump in cold temperatures; this may shorten the battery life.
The usage of your pump, such as how often the buttons are pushed, the number of alerts/alarms and set
changes.
The amount of insulin the pump is delivering.
The usage of some features. The backlight, vibrate, remote control and meter options decrease battery life.
