Insulet Corporation 019 Manuale Utente

 

1. Open the battery compartment on the back of the PDM by 

pushing the compartment latch inward and then upward 
(Figure A-2). No special tools are necessary.

2. Insert 2 new AAA alkaline batteries into the compartment.

3. Replace the battery door.
4. Turn the PDM face up. The PDM powers on automatically.

The PDM is now ready to use. Dispose of the old batteries in 

accordance with local waste disposal regulations.

The PDM is not waterproof. Do not place it in water or leave it 

near water where it can accidentally fall in. If it becomes sub-
merged in water:
1. Dry the outside of the PDM with a clean, lint-free cloth.
2. Open the battery compartment; remove the batteries and 

discard them.

3. Use a clean, lint-free cloth to gently absorb any water in the 

battery compartment.

4. Leave the battery compartment door open until the PDM is 

thoroughly dry.

5. Do not put in fresh batteries or attempt to use the PDM until 

it has thoroughly air-dried.

When your PDM alerts you that battery power is getting 

low, the PDM will maximize remaining battery life by:
•

Turning off your vibration alert (if set)

•

Disabling bright mode

•

Disabling the test strip port light

Once the batteries are replaced, these functions resume.

If the batteries run out, date and time are at risk. DO 
NOT remove the old batteries until you have new 
ones at hand. The PDM protects data in the memory 
for up to 2 hours after the batteries run out or are 
removed.

The diagram inside the compartment shows you 

which direction to insert the batteries.

Never use a blow dryer or hot air to dry the Pod or 
PDM. Extreme heat can damage the electronics.
