Locking Keys Using KeyLock Feature

The KeyLock feature lets you lock all four keys on your pump as a safety measure against accidentally activating functions. You may want to use this function while sleeping, or during sports, for example. The KeyLock function is turned on in the STANDARD SETUP MENU. All instructions in this user guide are given on the assumption that the KeyLock is off. For more information see the section “Turning KeyLock On or Off” (page 113).

Screens

Your pump displays various screens on its display for you to access information and functions.

RUN Screen

basal rate		current hourly
	time	basal rate

KeyLock locked

pump timer cartridge low

battery low active basal rate profile

During normal use, your pump is in RUN mode and insulin is delivered into your body based on the basal rate you have programmed. The RUN screen is the “home” screen and is displayed when the pump is in RUN mode. After you program or review information, the pump returns to the RUN screen. This screen shows the current time, the current basal rate profile, and the current hourly basal rate in units per hour. The RUN screen will also display reminder information (such as “cartridge low”) and special functions (such as KeyLock locked or unlocked) in the form of symbols.

See the sections “Starting Insulin Delivery” (page 65) for instructions on starting your pump and “Appendix F: Symbols” (page 183) for more information about the symbols.
