WARNING: Be sure to review all the values used in bolus calculations to make sure they
are correct. You may always adjust the insulin units up or down before you decide to administer
your bolus. If you dose an insulin amount that is too high or too low, this may result in a
hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic event. Please discuss the bolus calculator feature and all
relevant personal settings with your health care professional before using the calculator for
the first time.
ezCarb
This feature allows you to manually enter the number of carbs eaten, and your pump will automatically
calculate your bolus dose, based on the I:C ratio, ISF and BG Target range you have entered for the
current time of day. Consult your health care team for your personal I:C ratios, ISFs and BG Target
ranges. See Chapter 10 in Section I, pages 49–58.
If the IOB feature is activated, your pump will calculate a reduced amount for high BG correction
boluses and for Carb Boluses if you entered a below-target BG value.
When you use your meter remote to deliver an ezCarb Bolus, you may also select the number of carbs
eaten directly from a Food Database stored in your meter remote, see Chapter 4 in Section III, pages
189–204. The Food Database is available through an upload to your meter remote from ezManager
Software. For instructions on uploading the Food Database, refer to the ezManager
included with the software.
