Shelby takes very small doses of insulin for her meal boluses. As a safety limit, her
healthcare professional had her reset her pump with a max bolus of 5.0 units.
Example 2: Max bolus
David is a growing teenager. He loves to eat big meals and requires very large
doses of insulin for his food. David's healthcare professional had him reset his
pump with a max bolus of 20.0 units so he can take more insulin when needed.
Bolus increment
The Bolus Increment setting determines the number of units that are increased or
decreased with each button press when you adjust your bolus delivery amount in
the Bolus Wizard, Manual Bolus, and Preset Bolus screens. Depending on your
typical bolus amount, you can set your increment to 0.1 units, 0.05 units, or
0.025 units.
Note: The Easy Bolus feature uses a setting called Step Size to determine
the number of insulin units for each button press. See Setting up the Easy
Bolus feature, on page 108 for more information.
To set your bolus increment:
1. Press
and go to the Bolus Increment screen.
Options > Delivery Settings > Bolus Increment
