Your t:slim X2 insulin pump can warn you if there has been no interaction with your pump within a programmed period of time. An Auto-Off Warning will appear on the pump screen, and if you do not press the Screen On/Quick Bolus button and tap 1-2-3 to unlock the pump within 30 seconds, insulin delivery will be stopped and the pump will shut down.
Note: An interaction with the t:connect mobile app does not reset the Auto-Off Alarm timer.
The default for the Auto-Off Alarm is off. If you turn this feature on, you can set the period of time to anywhere between five and 24 hours. It is important to be aware that you may receive an Auto-Off Warning or Alarm unexpectedly, which means you might not be prepared for insulin delivery to be stopped on your t:slim X2 insulin pump.
