CHAPTER 10
Alerts and Alarms
Safety Checks
The mylife OmniPod System has a very important safety feature: 
It can check its own functions automatically and alert you when 
something needs attention. When you turn on the Personal Dia-
betes Manager (PDM), the System automatically performs 
a series of safety checks. (Refer to Page 54 for detailed instruc-
tions. The ID screen must be confirmed before you can check 
Pod status.) To make you aware of a serious or potentially serious 
condition, the System sounds an alarm and displays an on-
screen message. The message has instructions for taking care of 
the alarm condition. Alarm conditions are easy to handle. They 
are not a problem if you attend to them promptly.
Blood Glucose Meter Alerts
These alerts let you know about an error in the blood glucose 
meter, test strip, sample, or results. The PDM beeps and displays 
an error message number, as in Figure 10-1.
If you are having symptoms that are not consistent 
with your blood glucose test and you have followed 
all instructions described in this User Guide, call your 
healthcare professional.
