4.2 Quick Bolus
As with the Standard Bolus, the Quick Bolus delivers the
programmed insulin dose all at once. However, you do not need
to switch to the main Menu screen to set up a Quick Bolus. In
fact, with experience you will be able to program this bolus type
without even looking at the display.
This bolus type lets you discreetly deliver a bolus while your
pump is hidden in your clothing. However, it is only possible to
program the bolus amount in distinct increments. The default
setting for this increment is 0.5 units, which means you can set
the bolus amount to 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 units, and so on. If needed, you
can change the increment to 0.1, 0.2, 1.0 or 2.0 units in the
Therapy Settings. See chapter 8.4.2, page 118.

WARNING
Make sure that you know and use the correct bolus
increment. Using the incorrect bolus increment will deliver the
wrong insulin dose.
And as with the Standard Bolus, this bolus is suitable for meals
that contain mainly fast digestible carbohydrates as well as for
the correction of high blood glucose levels.
If necessary, you can adjust the speed of the bolus delivery. See
chapter 8.4.2, page 118.
