Stopping your pump
You can stop your pump with the suspend function. Suspend stops all insulin delivery including the current
basal and any bolus or prime deliveries that are in progress. While suspended, your pump will not deliver insulin
until you Resume your pump. When basal is resumed, the pump is taken out of the Suspend mode.
The pump will beep or vibrate about every 15 minutes on the hour to remind you that it is not delivering insulin.
Example: You suspend your pump at 11:20AM. The pump will beep/vibrate at 11:30AM, 11:45AM, 12:00PM, and so on
until you resume your pump (basal resumes).
NOTE - When suspended, your pump is in Attention mode (solid circles). When in Suspend, you can only
resume your basal or view the STATUS screen. No other functions are available.
