º Do not use infusion sets or other accessories that are not designated for use with your Accu-Chek Insight insulin pump by Roche as this could lead to leakage or malfunction of the pump and underdelivery or overdelivery of insulin.
Your Accu-Chek Insight insulin pump offers you the option of delivering up to 5 different basal profiles in order to easily meet your changing insulin needs (for example during the week rather than at the weekend).
Page 126
Hourly basal rate An hourly basal rate is the amount of insulin delivered by your Accu-Chek Insight insulin pump for each hour. Infusion set Infusion sets connect your insulin pump to your body. The insulin is delivered from the cartridge through the infusion set tubing and cannula or needle into your subcutaneous tissue.
Page 127
GLOSSARY lag Time With the lag time you can specify a delay between programming a bolus and the actual beginning of the bolus delivery. Maintenance A maintenance message will be triggered when the pump requires your immediate action to maintain its functionality. After a maintenance message the pump will be in PAUSE or STOP mode.
Page 128
GLOSSARY sToP When your insulin pump is in STOP mode, it does not deliver any insulin. The insulin delivery is only stopped if an error or some maintenance messages occurs, if it is in PAUSE mode for more than 15 minutes or if you switch it to STOP mode. Functions such as bolus or Temporary Basal Rate are interrupted by putting your insulin pump into STOP mode.
