Taking Care of Your PDM and Pod 11
Note: If the PDM battery is critically low and the PDM has turned off, your Pod
continues to deliver basal insulin according to the active Basal Program or temp
basal. If you do not charge your PDM battery, this insulin delivery continues until
the Pod expires.
Note: The history records stay in memory for 60 days even if the battery power is
critically low or the battery is removed.
