21 About Automated Mode
If there has been little to no impact to your sensor glucose value from delivering
at the insulin max, the System assumes there may be a problem you need to
troubleshoot. Delivering too much insulin for too long could put you at risk of
hypoglycaemia.
e Automated Delivery Restriction can let you know that you need to step in and
check the following:
• Is your Sensor reporting your glucose accurately? Check your BG with a BG
meter to conrm. You may need to replace your Sensor.
• Could there be a problem with your Pod or cannula? Check that your Pod is
securely applied, and that there are no signs of wetness or leaking around the
adhesive. Check for ketones. You may need to replace your Pod.
• Do you need more insulin? Tap the bolus button, tap Use Sensor on the
Bolus screen, and see if additional insulin is recommended. You may need a
correction bolus.
Switch to Manual Mode
When the Automated Delivery Restriction alarm appears, the System will ask you
to switch to Manual Mode for 5 minutes or longer. is step allows the System to
know that you are aware of the situation and considering action. While in Manual
Mode, you can check BG, review the Sensor Graph and troubleshoot your Sensor
and Pod. You can then return to Automated Mode by tapping the Menu button
(
