CAUTION: | The Bolus Wizard feature cannot correctly determine the active insulin in |
| your system after you have taken a manual injection of insulin. The |
| manual injection will not be recorded by the pump so your active insulin |
| amount will be read as too little. Usually, you must wait at least 8 hours |
| after an injection before using on your Bolus Wizard feature to calculate |
| your active insulin. The actual length of time you need to wait depends |
| on your active insulin setting in the Bolus Wizard feature. See “About |
| active insulin” on page 64 for more information. |
