• If more than one, non-paired, lled
Omnipod 5 Pod is in range, the

compatible with the Omnipod 5
System. If you try to use an older Pod
that cannot communicate with the

you of this and prevents you from
completing activation. Tap DISCARD
POD and restart Pod activation with
an Omnipod 5 Pod.
• If the Omnipod 5 App is able to
communicate with the Pod but
detects an incompatible Pod, the
Omnipod 5 App informs you of this
and prevents you from completing
activation. Tap DISCARD POD
and restart Pod activation with an
Omnipod 5 Pod.
3. Listen for the tone from the Omnipod 5
App that indicates that the Pod is activated and ready to be applied.
Note: Aer activating a Pod, the Omnipod 5 App should always be able to
communicate with a Pod that is up to 1.5 metres (5 feet) away. Depending on the
location, the Omnipod 5 App may be able to communicate with a Pod that is as
much as 15 metres (50 feet) away.
Note: Aer activating, the Pod beeps every 5 minutes until you apply it. If you do
not apply it and do not begin insulin delivery within 60 minutes aer activating,
the Pod becomes unusable.
If you see a communication error message when you attempt to activate your Pod,
and you are not using an older Pod, see “Error when activating a Pod” on page 324.
