Question: Why are alarms important?
Answer: Your pump monitors activities and notifies you if there is an unusual pump status or your attention is
required. When an attention alarm is active, INSULIN DELIVERY IS STOPPED and immediate operator interaction is
required.
If the Vibrate mode is on, all alarms and alerts start as vibrations and then change to beeps. For your safety, if
there is no response after ten minutes, the beeps change to a siren. The siren continues every minute until the
alarm is cleared.
What to do
When an alarm is triggered, the pump goes into Attention mode (a solid circle displays) and an alarm message shows
on the screen. The pump then defaults to the HOME screen. Do these steps when you get an alarm:
