CHAPTER 10
Alerts and Alarms
Safety Checks
The OmniPod System has a very important safety feature: It can
check its own functions and let you know when something
needs attention. When you turn on the Personal Diabetes Man-
ager (PDM), the System automatically performs a series of safety
checks. To make you aware of a serious or potentially serious
condition, the System sounds an alarm and displays an on-
screen message. The message has instructions for taking care of
the alarm condition. Alarm conditions are easy to handle. They
are not a problem if you attend to them promptly.
Blood Glucose Meter Alerts
These alerts let you know about an error in the blood glucose
meter, test strip, sample, or results. The PDM beeps and displays
an error message number, as in Figure 10-1.

Figure 10-1
The following table explains what the message could mean and
what you should do.
Customer Care: 1 855 POD INFO (1 855 763 4636). Outside of Canada: 647-788-3132.
If you are having symptoms that are not consistent
with your blood glucose test and you have followed
all instructions described in this User Guide, call your
healthcare professional.
