either key. The recommended steps below are those described with the first
key appearing without parenthesis, such as

Note:
Because your pump beeps and vibrates to guide you safely through the

one finger. After the bolus is programmed, you can count the beeps and
vibrations of your pump to verify the correct programming.
The bolus increment for the “Quick” Standard Bolus is initially set to
0.5 units.
