Energizer 715, 515 manual Your basal settings, Basal programming and delivery

Your basal settings

You must program your basal settings before you can deliver basal insulin. Keep a written record of your basal settings.

It is recommended that you set your basal rates with the assistance of your healthcare professional.

If you plan to take off your pump for an extended period of time, i.e. more than a day, set the basal rate to 0.00 U/H. This will ensure that the insulin delivery records in your pump are accurate. See “If you remove your pump” on page 21 for more information.
