10 Alarms, Notications, Communication Errors
Responding to Alarms
To respond to a hazard alarm or advisory alarm:
1. Wake up your PDM. e Lock screen shows an alarm message along with the
hazard alarm ( ) icon or advisory alarm ( ) icon.
2. Unlock your PDM. Aer you enter your PIN, a full-screen alarm message
appears.
Note: If you are using your PDM when an alarm occurs, the alarm message
appears as a full-screen message.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions or see the individual alarm details starting
on page 125.
Note: You can use your PDM even if you do not address the cause of an advisory
alarm immediately. However, you must acknowledge a hazard alarm before you
can use your PDM for anything else.
Tip: If you follow the PDM's instructions and are still not able to silence a hazard
alarm, see "Silencing an Alarm" on page 135.
Note: If a temp basal or extended bolus is running when a Pod hazard alarm
occurs, the PDM informs you that it was canceled.
Responding to Notications
Notications remind you about actions you may want to perform.
Finding out about notications
To alert you to a notication, the Pod sounds a tone and the PDM either sounds
a tone or vibrates (see "Sounds and Vibrations" on page 124). When you hear a
sound or feel a vibration, check your PDM for a message.
Note: Program reminders, condence reminders, and some informational
signals do not have an accompanying message.
If your PDM is asleep when you hear or feel a notication, wake up the PDM. e
Lock screen shows the notication icon ( ) and the notication message.
• If there are multiple messages, the most recent message is shown at the top of
the list.
• If there are more messages than can be displayed on the Lock screen, a banner
beneath the messages shows the number of additional messages.
