Alarms and notications
For your safety, the Omnipod DASH™ System provides a range of alarms and
notications to tell you that your attention is needed or to warn you of hazardous
situations. For a description of the PDM's alarms and notications, see "Alarms,
Notications, and Communication Errors" on page 121.
Note: Brief alarm and notication messages appear on the Lock screen. You must
unlock the screen and enter your personal identication number (PIN) to see the
full alarm messages.
Note: Wake up your PDM periodically to conrm that there are no notication
or alarm messages that require a response.
Warning: Do NOT attempt to use the Omnipod DASH™ System before you
receive training. Inadequate training could put your health and safety at risk.

periodically checks for soware updates if Wi-Fi is on. For information about
checking for and installing soware updates, see "Soware update (Wireless
update)" on page 106.
