Important Safety Information Regarding Your Paradigm Insulin Infusion Pump (includes all models) Avoid Immersing Your Pump In Water Although it is unlikely that water damage will occur if your pump is splashed or briefly dunked, you should avoid immersing your Paradigm infusion pump in water. To swim or participate in other water activities, always disconnect from your Paradigm pump and reconnect after water play. If you inadvertently submerge your pump in water, dry the pump quickly using a soft, clean towel and verify that it is working properly by selecting “self test” from the pump’s UTILITIES MENU. If you believe that water has entered your pump or you observe any other possible pump malfunction, please check your blood glucose, treat high blood glucose (if necessary) with an injection and contact our 24 Hour HelpLine at 1-800-MINIMED (1-800-646-4633) for further assistance. Symptoms of high blood glucose include fatigue, excessive thirst and nausea. You should always contact your healthcare professional if you experience excessively high or low blood glucose levels, or if you have any questions about your care.
Electrostatic Discharge Although your Paradigm pump is designed to be unaffected by typical levels of electrostatic discharge (ESD), very high levels of ESD can result in a reset of the pump’s software with an associated pump error alarm. In most cases, exposure to high levels of ESD will trigger the pump’s A-13 alarm although, under certain circumstances, high level ESD exposure can cause A-44, Bolus Stopped or Max Delivery alarms. High levels of ESD are more likely in situations where the relative humidity is very low, such as inside a heated building during the winter in areas where it is cold outside. If your pump experiences an A-13 or other error alarm, press the “ESC” and “ACT” buttons to clear the alarm. If you are unable to clear the alarm by pressing “ESC” and “ACT,” you may need to remove and replace the pump’s battery to clear the alarm. After clearing the alarm, you should always verify that your pump is set to the correct date and time and that all other settings (basal rate, max basal and bolus limits, etc.) are programmed to the desired values, since the software reset could erase your previously programmed settings. Please see the Alarms and Alerts section of this User Guide for more details regarding what to do if your pump displays an error alarm or other alert message. Please contact our 24-Hour Line at 1-800-MINIMED (1-800-646-4633) to report any error alarms or other problems that occur with your pump.

Your personal information You may need the following information from your healthcare professional before going to your pump start appointment. If you are unsure, contact your healthcare professional or pump trainer for instructions.
NOTE - This information is not for the Bolus Wizard® feature. Refer to chapter 5 for Bolus Wizard feature settings.
Basal rate Basal insulin is required to maintain your target glucose values when you are not eating. Your pump can be programmed with up to three (3) basal patterns (standard, pattern A, pattern B) to accommodate your varying insulin needs on different days (example: weekday versus weekend day). Each pattern can have up to 48 basal rates. When you first start pump therapy, your healthcare professional may only have you program one or two basal rates. Get your basal rate settings from your healthcare professional.

Introduction Thank you for choosing Medtronic MiniMed as your partner in helping you gain better control of your diabetes. Whether you are beginning pump therapy for the first time or upgrading from a previous model, we believe that the combination of state-of-the-art technology and the simple, menu-driven programming of the pump will provide many benefits. This user guide is designed to help you to understand pump therapy and the operation of your pump. We strongly recommend that you work closely with your healthcare professional for a safe and complete pump start. Your pump is indicated for the continuous delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes mellitus for persons requiring insulin. Based on your settings, the pump delivers your custom basal automatically and continuously 24-hours a day. It also provides bolus deliveries to support your immediate insulin needs for food intake and/or high blood glucose. The Bolus Wizard feature can calculate your bolus amount for you based on your personal settings.
Availability The pump and accompanying products are available from Medtronic MiniMed and authorized distributors.
Assistance Medtronic MiniMed provides a 24 Hour HelpLine for assistance. The HelpLine is staffed with technicians who are trained in the set-up and operation of the pump and are able to answer pump-related questions. When calling the HelpLine or your local Medtronic MiniMed office, please have your pump and serial number available. The phone number for the 24 Hour HelpLine is also on the back of your pump.

Chapter 1
If you give yourself insulin by using a syringe, the Bolus Wizard feature will not be able to correctly determine the active insulin in your system.You must generally wait at least 8 hours after an injection before relying on your Bolus Wizard feature to calculate your active insulin. But, the length of time you need to wait depends on your active insulin setting in the Bolus Wizard feature. See “About active insulin” on page 62 for more information.
Disposables The pumps use disposable reservoirs and infusion sets for insulin delivery. Installation instructions for Paradigm reservoir and infusion sets are provided in chapter 4, “Starting on insulin.” ➠
Reservoirs: The 522K pump is intended for use with a 176-unit Paradigm reservoir (MMT-326). The 722K pump is intended for use with a 300-unit Paradigm reservoir (MMT-332), however it can also use the MMT-326 as well.
➠
Infusion sets: Medtronic MiniMed provides a variety of Paradigm infusion sets to fit your needs. Contact your healthcare professional who will assist you to choose an infusion set that fits your needs.
WARNING:
For your protection the pump has undergone extensive testing to confirm appropriate operation when used with Paradigm reservoirs and Paradigm infusion sets manufactured or distributed by Medtronic MiniMed. We recommend using Medtronic MiniMed infusion sets and reservoirs as we cannot guarantee appropriate operation if the pump is used with reservoirs or infusion sets offered by third-parties and therefore we are not responsible for any injury or malfunctioning of the pump that may occur in association with such use.
Accessories ➠ ➠
➠
Meter: You can program your pump to automatically receive your BG reading from a linked meter which may have been included with your pump. Remote control: The optional Paradigm remote control can be used with the pump to deliver normal boluses and suspend/resume the pump from a distant location. (This User Guide provides programming instructions for the remote control. Refer to the remote control User Guide for operating instructions.) Transmitter: The transmitter (MMT-7703) is a small device that connects to the sensor. It comes with a blue tester and a charger. When connected to a sensor that is inserted in the body, the transmitter automatically initializes the sensor and begins to periodically transmit glucose data to the pump using a radio signal.
Introduction

➠ ➠
Sensor: The sensor continuously converts tiny amounts of glucose from your fatty layer under the skin into an electronic signal. ComLink: The Medtronic MiniMed ComLink is used to download the Paradigm 522K or 722K pump data to the diabetes management software using a serial communications interface cable installed on your computer. To order supplies, call 800-646-4633 (1-800-MiniMed) 818-362-5958 (outside U.S.) www.minimed.com
How to wear your pump There are different ways to wear your pump. Medtronic MiniMed has optional accessories that can hide, protect, and add to the convenience of wearing a pump. Refer to the accessories catalog or the website (www.minimed.com) for more information. ➠ ➠ ➠ ➠

Holster: to wear the pump on your belt. Pump clip: to wear the pump underneath your clothing. Activity guard: If you are active in sports, or you are a child, use the guard to protect the pump from disconnecting. Leather case: Fine leather lined with nylon. Styling complements business and formal wear. Velcro flap provides easy access to pump for programming. Wear it vertically with the built-in belt clip.
