4.3 Programming an Extended Bolus
The Extended Bolus option enables you to program a bolus to be
delivered over a period of time. This function is helpful during
long meals, dinners, or receptions, or when you have meals that
are digested slowly. The Extended Bolus may also be appropriate
for people who have gastroparesis (delayed digestion).
The duration of bolus delivery can be programmed in 15-minute
intervals up to 12 hours and begins immediately after conrma-
tion. Throughout the bolus delivery, the remaining time and
amount of the Extended Bolus and the current hourly basal rate
are displayed in the RUN screen.
Cancellation during the start delay and during the bolus delivery
will cause a WARNING W8: BOLUS CANCELED. Press f twice
to conrm and snooze the Warning. See chapter 8.
Note Make sure that the cancellation was deliberate and
program a new bolus, if needed.
