Chapter 15 – t:slim Pump Alerts
Your t:slim Pump lets you know import-
ant information about the System with
Reminders, Alerts, and Alarms. Re-
minders are displayed to notify you of
an option that you have set (for exam-
ple, a reminder to check you BG after
a bolus). Alerts display automatically to
notify you about safety conditions that
you need to know (for example, an alert
that your insulin level is low). Alarms
display automatically to let you know of
an actual or potential stopping of insulin
delivery (for example, an alarm that the
insulin cartridge is empty). Pay special
attention to Alarms.
If multiple Reminders, Alerts, and Alarms
happen at the same time, Alarms will be
displayed first, Alerts will be displayed
second, and Reminders will be dis-
played third. Each must be confirmed
separately until all have been confirmed.
Information in this section will help you
learn how to respond to Alerts.
Alerts notify you with 2 sequences of 3
notes or 2 vibrations depending on the
volume/vibrate setting selected in Pump
Volume. They repeat regularly until ac-
knowledged. Alerts do not escalate.
