3 Connect the transmitter to your sensor now if you have not already done so. If the screen times out,

do not disconnect the sensor. Start from step 1 again.

4 After your sensor is connected, press ACT. The SENSOR READY 2 HRS screen appears.

5 The sensor will enter a two hour initialization period. Press any button to continue. After 2 hours your

pump will alert you to enter a meter BG to calibrate your sensor.

Calibrating the sensor

Two hours after you use your pump to start the sensor, your pump will alert you to enter a meter BG

(METER BG NOW). This meter BG entry will be the first calibration for your sensor. You have to wait 10–

15 minutes after calibration to see the first sensor glucose reading on the pump screen. Six hours after the

first calibration, the pump will alert you to enter the second calibration.

After the second calibration, you must calibrate your sensor every 12 hours. If you fail to enter a meter BG

reading after 12 hours, your pump displays the METER BG NOW alert. Your pump will then stop calculating

glucose values. However, about 20 minutes after you have entered a meter BG, your pump will continue

calculating glucose values.

Follow these guidelines for best calibration results:

• Calibrate three to four times spread out throughout the day.

• Avoid calibrating when your glucose is changing rapidly, such as after eating or exercise.

• Enter your meter BG reading into the pump immediately after testing your BG. Do not wait to enter it

later.

• Always use clean dry fingers when you check your blood glucose.

• Only use your fingertips to obtain blood samples for calibration.

After the transmitter successfully transmits signals to the pump, you may choose to put an occlusive

dressing over the transmitter and the sensor.
