22.3 Calibration Blood Glucose
Value and Correction Bolus
Your t:slim X2 Pump uses the blood
glucose value entered for calibration to
determine if a correction bolus is
needed, or to provide other important
information about your insulin on board
and blood glucose.
• If you enter a calibration value that is
above your Target BG in Personal
Profiles, a message screen will
200
indicate "YOUR BG IS ABOVE
TARGET". To add a correction
bolus, tap YES. Follow the
instructions in Section 7.2 BG Entry
and Correction Bolus Calculation
deliver a correction bolus.
• If you enter a calibration value that is
below your Target BG in Personal
Profiles, a message screen will
indicate "YOUR BG IS BELOW
TARGET", and other important
information will appear on the
screen.

calibration value, the pump will
return to the CCM Home Screen.

22.4 24 Hour Calibration Update

Calibrate your CGM System when
prompted. If you did not enter the sen-
sor code during sensor session start,
then calibration will be at least every 24
hours after your first day of calibrations
to make sure your sensor glucose read-
ings remain accurate and close to your
blood glucose values. You can enter
blood glucose values sooner than 24
hours if you want. If you have not
entered any blood glucose values in the
past 24 hours, the pump will ask you to
enter a blood glucose value to update
to its calibration.
The "CALIBRATE CGM" screen will
appear, letting you know that a blood
glucose value from your meter must be
entered to calibrate. In addition, a blood
drop will appear to the right of the
antenna symbol and will remain there
until a blood glucose value is entered to
calibrate.
1. From the Calibrate CGM Screen,
Tap CLOSE.
PRECAUTION
DO use fingertips to calibrate from your
meter. Blood from other places may be less
accurate and not as timely.
