User Guide
t:slim X2 Insulin Pump
Users can program their t:slim X2 insulin pump to automatically switch into
the Sleep Activity.
Two Sleep Schedules can be used. From the Home screen, tap OPTIONS and then
Activity.
⚑ Note: These instructions are provided as a reference tool for pump users
and caregivers who are already familiar with the use of an insulin pump and
with insulin therapy in general. Not all screens are shown. For more detailed
information on the operation of the t:slim X2 pump, please refer to its user
guide. Tap Sleep.
⚑ Note: Activities may not be enabled at the same time. If programmed,
Sleep Schedule(s) will automatically start once Exercise is disabled. Tap
Sleep Schedules and then tap a Sleep Schedule.
⚑ Note: If the user does not program Sleep Schedules, the Sleep Activity
must be manually turned on and off.
Pump Tip: Control-IQ technology must be on and continuous glucose
monitoring (CGM)* session must be active on the pump to start the Sleep
Activity. Tap Selected Days and then tap each day of the week the user wants
Sleep scheduled. Tap to continue. Tap Start Time and then tap Time. Use the
keypad to enter the desired time. Tap to continue and then tap again. Repeat
the same process to configure the End Time.
⚑ Note: These times should reflect the time the user generally goes to
sleep and wakes up. If applicable, also confirm the time of day is accurate.
Tap to save the settings.
The SETTING SAVED screen will appear to confirm.
In addition to creating Sleep Schedules, the Sleep Activity can also be
manually turned on and off from the t:slim X2 insulin pump.
Flip to the back to learn how the Sleep Activity adjusts insulin delivery
when enabled. From the Home screen, tap OPTIONS and then Activity. Tap Sleep.
Tap START to manually turn on the Sleep Activity.
⚑ Note: To disable the Sleep Activity, tap anywhere on the Sleep button
from the Activity screen. Sleep is now enabled.
Configuration Settings
✓ To ensure that both Sleep Schedules can be saved and enabled at the same
time, the two schedules cannot overlap. One or both Sleep Schedules may be
disabled at any time.
✓ If you manually start the Sleep Activity before a Sleep Schedule begins, it
does not impact the scheduled wake time
✓ Automatic correction boluses will not be delivered while the Sleep Activity
is enabled
Pump Tip: On the Sleep Schedule screen, the default for Selected Days is
always the current day of the week according to the insulin pump.
Responsible Use of Control-IQ Technology
Control-IQ technology does not prevent all high and low blood glucose events,
and is not a substitute for meal boluses and active self-management of your
diabetes. Control-IQ technology will not be able to predict sensor glucose
values and adjust insulin dosing if your CGM is not working properly or is
unable to communicate with your pump. Always pay attention to your symptoms
and blood glucose levels and treat accordingly. Please visit

How it Works
The t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ technology uses CGM values to
predict glucose levels 30 minutes ahead and automatically adjust insulin every
5 minutes.
When the Sleep Activity is enabled, the algorithm narrows and lowers the range
of treatment values to 112.5-120 mg/dL when determining whether to decrease,
stop, or increase basal insulin delivery. * CGM sold separately.
Important Safety Information: RX ONLY. The t:slim X2 pump and Control-IQ
technology are intended for single patient use. The t:slim X2 pump and
Control-IQ technology are indicated for use with U-100 insulin only. t:slim X2
insulin pump: The t:slim X2 insulin pump with interoperable technology is an
alternate controller enabled (ACE) pump that is intended for the subcutaneous
delivery of insulin, at set and variable rates, for the management of diabetes
mellitus in people requiring insulin. The pump is able to reliably and
securely communicate with compatible, digitally connected devices, including
automated insulin dosing software, to receive, execute, and confirm commands
from these devices. The t:slim X2 pump is indicated for use in individuals six
years of age and greater. Control-IQ technology: Control-IQ technology is
intended for use with a compatible integrated continuous glucose monitor
(iCGM, sold separately) and ACE pump to automatically increase, decrease, and
suspend delivery of basal insulin based on iCGM readings and predicted glucose
values. It can also deliver correction boluses when the glucose value is
predicted to exceed a predefined threshold. Control-IQ technology is intended
for the management of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in persons six years of age and
greater.
WARNING: Control-IQ technology should not be used by anyone under the age
of six years old. It should also not be used in patients who require less than
10 units of insulin per day or who weigh less than 55 pounds.
Control-IQ technology is not indicated for use in pregnant women, people on
dialysis, or critically ill patients. Do not use Control-IQ technology if
using hydroxyurea. Users of the t:slim X2 pump and Control-IQ technology must:
use the insulin pump, CGM, and all other system components in accordance with
their respective instructions for use; test blood glucose levels as
recommended by their healthcare provider; demonstrate adequate carb-counting
skills; maintain sufficient diabetes self-care skills; see healthcare
provider(s) regularly; and have adequate vision and/or hearing to recognize
all functions of the pump, including alerts, alarms, and reminders. The t:slim
X2 pump, and the CGM transmitter and sensor must be removed before MRI, CT, or
diathermy treatment. Visit
