Easy bolus

The EASY BOLUS button allows a quick way to deliver a Normal bolus. You will pre-set the

settings for this feature in the EASY BOLUS OPTION screen in the BOLUS MENU. Your pump is sent from the factory with the Easy Bolus feature set to on. If you do not want to use Easy Bolus, turn it off.

After you set up Easy Bolus, with each press, you can increase the Normal bolus amount by a fixed amount, called a “step.” Before you can deliver an Easy Bolus, you must set the amount in the EASY BOLUS ENTRY screen. This amount equals the number of units of insulin for each step. The maximum number of steps can equal up to your maximum bolus limit.

NOTE - When using vibrate mode, EASY BOLUS is limited to 20 steps or maximum bolus, whichever comes first.

Once you set your step amount, you can program your Easy Bolus. When you are in the HOME screen,

each time you press the Easy Bolus amount increases by one “step.” You will hear a beep or feel a

vibration for each step increase. Each beep is a different tone. This makes it easy for you to count the beeps while you are programming your Easy Bolus.
