Appendix F: Details on User Profiles
In addition to the display and the vibrations, your pump uses a
sophisticated sound pattern to provide you with information on
the pump’s current status and give you feedback on values you
programmed. With the User profiles the pump oers special
support that may be helpful for people with impaired hearing or
impaired eyesight. In the chapter about Setting you can learn
how to select a User profile. See chapter8.3.2, page108.
Diminished
When Diminished is selected, all sounds of the pump will be
issued one octave lower than in the user profile Standard. This
may be helpful for users with impaired hearing. Discuss using
this user profile with your healthcare professional if you have
hearing problems. Additionally, it is highly recommended that you
pay special attention to the vibrations and watch the pump’s
display frequently.
Expressive
Discuss using the Expressive user profile with your caregiver and
healthcare professional. With some training and experience this
user profile may help you to operate the pump if you have
impaired eyesight.
