Example:
Suspend function
Helen is ready to eat her lunch. She has just programmed her pump to deliver a meal bolus when the phone rings.
Helen wants to talk on the phone and not eat her lunch right away. She knows that if she lets the bolus continue
and she does not eat her lunch soon, she may be at risk for low blood glucose. Helen suspends delivery of her
pump to stop the bolus, but then resumes delivery to restart her basal insulin. When she is off the phone and
ready to eat, she checks her STATUS screen to see how much insulin she received from the partially delivered
bolus before she suspended her pump. She will reprogram a new bolus for the remainder of her bolus amount.
Practice:
Suspend function
1 Make sure you are NOT connected to your pump while practicing.
Program your pump to deliver a Normal bolus of 3.0 units. Once the bolus begins, stop the bolus by suspending
your pump.

2 Now, RESUME delivery, so that your basal insulin will continue.
3 Check the STATUS screen.
