Alert conditions
Your pump has a sophisticated network of safety checks and systems. If it
detects an unusual condition that requires your immediate attention, it will
beep or vibrate periodically to alert you. The pump will go into Special
mode (an open circle will display), and the backlight will illuminate. The
alert message will also appear on the screen.
➠Why are alerts important?
Your pump monitors activities and will alert you if a Special mode is active. Some alerts are a normal
part of pump therapy, such as an active temporary basal. There are alerts that indicate a condition
that is outside normal pump activity. For example, your pump notifies you with an alert when you
need to replace the reservoir (LOW RESERVOIR) or replace your pump battery (LOW BATTERY).

What to do

When your pump beeps or vibrates notifying you that an alert condition exists:
1Read and follow the instructions on the screen. Press ESC, ACT to silence an alert.
2Check the STATUS screen to determine what caused the alert.
3If the condition is due to a low battery, replace the battery.
4If the condition is due to a low reservoir, monitor the reservoir volume frequently and change the
reservoir when appropriate. Make sure you have a new reservoir, infusion set and vial of insulin with
you.
