MiniMed 640G - Alerts

Display: The pump displays a notification with a red icon and instructions.
Notification light: The red notification light blinks twice, followed by a pause, in a
continuous repeating pattern. The notification light is shown in Using the buttons,
on page 20.
Audio: Depending on your Audio Options settings, the pump emits an alarm tone,
a continuous three-pulse-and-pause vibration pattern, or both the alarm tone and
vibration.
You must resolve the underlying problem that triggered the alarm. In most cases,
you clear an alarm by pressing
and then you make a selection. In some cases,
however, clearing the alarm does not fix the underlying problem. The alarm
repeats until the underlying problem is fixed.
If you do not respond to an alarm, after ten minutes the alarm tone escalates to a
loud emergency siren. For more information, see Alarm and alert escalation, on
page 247.
Alerts
An alert makes you aware of a situation that may
require your attention. An alert is less serious than
an alarm.
When an alert occurs:
Display: The pump displays a notification with a
yellow icon and instructions.
Notification light: The red notification light on your pump blinks once, followed
by a pause, then blinks once again in a continuous repeating pattern. The
notification light is shown in Using the buttons, on page 20.
Audio: Depending on your Audio Options settings, the pump either beeps or
vibrates in a continuous three-pulse-and-pause pattern, or does both.
To clear an alert, press
and then make a selection. If you do not respond to an
alert, the pump beeps every five minutes or every fifteen minutes, depending on
the alert. Some alerts will also escalate to a loud emergency siren after ten
minutes. For more information, see Alarm and alert escalation, on page 247.
