4 Bolus
Warnings
Only change your specified bolus increment after consulting your doctor or diabetes advisor. Changing your bolus
increment accidentally can lead to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia (read warning in the box on page 7).
If the bolus is canceled prematurely, the “Bolus canceled” warning appears. Premature cancelation happens if there is
an alarm or if the insulin pump is put into stop mode. If your bolus in progress has been canceled prematurely, you can
obtain the actual duration and the insulin amount delivered by referring to the therapy data. If you wish to continue the
bolus, you must reprogram it following the procedure in this User Guide. Incorrect bolus delivery can lead to hypoglycemia
or hyperglycemia (read warning in the box on page 7).
Take special care when setting a bolus. Control every entry before confirming the bolus delivery. If the bolus is not set
properly, this can lead to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia (read warning in the box on page 7).
When using the blind bolus function make sure the bolus increment setting is correct beforehand. When entering a blind
bolus, do not be distracted. When wearing the insulin pump, make sure the blind bolus function is not activated by
accidental pushes on the function button (e.g. in your trouser pocket). The blind bolus function can be deactivated in the
settings menu. If you are uncertain whether the blind bolus has been delivered, look up the bolus amount in the therapy
data and respond to the delivered amount accordingly. Incorrect bolus delivery can lead to hypoglycemia or hypergly-
cemia (read warning in the box on page 7).
Do not set a bolus limit lower than your set bolus increment. A bolus is then not programmable anymore, this can lead to
hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia (read warning in the box on page 7).
