"BATT". If this happens, either recharge the battery or select a lower rate to complete the
feed cycle.
• The lifetime of the battery is optimally maintained by using the pump on a regular basis on
battery until it is fully discharged followed by a full recharge via the adapter on mains power.
• In case of battery failure, caused by, for example, an excessive temperature condition (which
may resolve itself with time) or by a complete battery failure, the E, F and battery symbol will
flash. Turn the pump "off" and contact your healthcare provider or refer the pump to service.

ALARM FUNCTIONS AND SAFETY FEATURES

In case any of the problems listed on the problem solver chart occur, the pump delivers an audible
and visual alarm and stops working. The back light of the LCD automatically switches on.
Exception to this is the low battery alarm "BATT", in this situation the pump continues working.
Action in the event of an alarm:
Check the type of alarm displayed by the large display characters.
• Press the "START/STOP" key to stop the audible and visual alarm.
• Correct the cause of the alarm as described in the table.
• Start the pump again by pressing "START/STOP".
The problem solver chart on the next page gives a clear explanation of the alarms.

pump may be rinsed by holding under a stream of warm, clean water.
Do not submerge the pump!
• Always maintain the three rollers on the rotor in a clean state to ensure they spin freely.

may be used to clean the outside surface of the adaptor. Make sure the adaptor is
disconnected from the wall outlet.
Safety notes:
