10.2.6 Error E6: MECHANICAL ERROR

With every insulin delivery (at least every 3 minutes) and each time you
put your insulin pump into RUN, the safety system of your insulin pump
reviews all mechanical parameters. If a mechanical error is discovered
during this process, the insulin delivery is stopped and an error E6:
MECHANICAL ERROR occurs.
Should the error E6: MECHANICAL ERROR occur again in spite of these
actions, contact your doctor or healthcare team for an alternate therapy
plan. Contact your local Customer Care Area for further assistance.
