arrange for the repair or replacement of the PPC. If the PPC is acciden-
tally splashed, sprayed or immersed, remove excess moisture with a soft
towel and then place the PPC in a warm place to thoroughly dry. When
dry, perform a “SELF TEST.” If the PPC does not display correctly, call
MiniMed to replace the device.
Maximum dosages
The physician can program specific limitations to insulin Basal Rates and
Bolus amounts, as well as total daily insulin usage. These limitations pro-

and to avoid overdosing.
Electrical and magnetic fields
Common electrical and magnetic fields that do not affect the Pump
include microwave ovens, satellite receiving dishes, common household
appliances, security devices found in department stores and airports, stan-
dard medical X-rays, cellular phone, and radiowaves.
