Automated insulin delivery generally increases.
If CGM values are trending downwards, automated insulin delivery may
still decrease or pause even if CGM values are above Target Glucose.
Within Target Glucose Automated insulin delivery is generally maintained to keep CGM values
near Target Glucose.
Below Target Glucose
Automated insulin delivery generally decreases or pauses.
If CGM values are trending upwards, automated insulin delivery may still
increase even if CGM values are below Target Glucose.
Less than 60 mg/dL Automated insulin delivery will always pause.
Omnipod®5 System Behavior
Omnipod®5 System Behavior
Delivery of insulin in Automated Mode or Manual Mode continues as programmed if away from the
Controller or smartphone. Users should avoid leaving the Controller or smartphone in a place that would
prevent them from hearing alarms or notications from the Omnipod 5 App.
*See list of compatible devices at www.omnipod.com/compatibility.
**The Omnipod 5 System must be used with the Dexcom G6 mobile app
and is not compatible with the Dexcom receiver.
*The Omnipod 5 System can be used with or without a CGM, but to benet from automated insulin delivery, it must be paired with the
Dexcom G6 CGM. The Omnipod 5 System is cleared for use in ages 2 years+. The Dexcom G6 CGM is sold separately.

Preparing for Initiation
■While AID technology has been shown to improve overall glycemic control3, hypoglycemia
and hyperglycemia can still occur. Ensure the user is knowledgeable regarding hypoglycemia
prevention and treatment and troubleshooting hyperglycemia.
■ Set up realistic goals and a follow-up plan with the user to help ensure success.
■ Encourage the user to download the Omnipod 5 Simulator prior to
Omnipod 5 System start to experience a system overview
and interact with key features and functionality.
*See list of compatible devices at www.omnipod.com/compatibility.
First Time Setup
The Omnipod 5 App can be downloaded to a
compatible* smartphone and is also integrated into the
Omnipod 5 Controller. If using the Omnipod 5 App on a
compatible smartphone, users will need to sign into the
Insulet-provided Controller rst.
Setting up the system for the rst time will include
signing in with an Omnipod ID and entering initial
insulin settings. To create an Omnipod ID, users will
visit Omnipod.com/setup to create their account,
Expectation Setting
Realistic expectation setting with users before initiating the
Omnipod 5 System is essential. Establishing expectations for
automated insulin delivery (AID) technology at initiation promotes
retention and optimal outcomes2.
Over time, the Omnipod 5 System will continue to adapt to the user’s
needs as it builds history on the user’s insulin requirements1.
The Omnipod 5 System is also known as a hybrid closed-loop
system since user intervention is required.
Prior to initiation, convey necessary user actions:
■Need to deliver bolus for carbohydrate intake at meals and
snacks to minimize postprandial hyperglycemia.
■Need to perform Pod & sensor changes.
■Need to respond to alerts & alarms.

Pod Placement
Careful Pod and CGM placement are important
to optimize connectivity. Place the Pod so it is:
■In direct line of sight of the CGM
■ At least three inches from the CGM
sensor site
■ Horizontal or diagonal on the abdomen,
hip, lower back, or buttocks
■ Vertical or at a slight angle on the upper
arm or thigh
■Avoiding sites where belts, waistbands, or
tight clothing may rub against or dislodge
the Pod or CGM
■ Avoid placing the Pod over a mole, tattoo,
or scar, where insulin absorption could
be reduced
Connecting the CGM is done by entering the
Dexcom transmitter serial number into the
Omnipod 5 App. The connection process can take
up to 20 minutes.
Note: The Dexcom G6 receiver cannot be used
with the Omnipod 5 System because the Omnipod
5 System is compatible only with the G6 app on a
smartphone. All sensor and transmitter-specific
actions are controlled through the Dexcom G6 app.**
**Dexcom CGM sold separately. The Omnipod 5 System must be used with the Dexcom G6 mobile app and is not compatible with
the Dexcom receiver. All Dexcom G6 alerts are configured and driven by the Dexcom G6 app.
Omnipod®5 System Readiness Omnipod®5 System Start
link data management accounts, and learn about
training options.
After Omnipod 5 App setup is complete, the user will
then activate a Pod and connect their CGM to the
Omnipod 5 System.
The Pod should be changed at least once every
3 days or after delivering 200 units of insulin,
whichever comes rst.

Adjustable Settings
Automated Insulin Delivery
Target Glucose is the only adjustable setting that directly impacts
automated insulin delivery.
• Customizable to user needs
• 110, 120, 130, 140, 150 mg/dL
• Up to 8 time segments
Target Glucose is used for both the target for automated insulin delivery
in Automated Mode as well as the target for correction bolus dosing in
Automated and Manual Modes.
Manual Basal Delivery SmartBolus Calculator
Adjusting Basal Program segments only
impacts Manual Mode basal insulin delivery.
• Basal Program (Manual Mode)
SmartBolus Calculator settings impact suggested
bolus doses in Automated and Manual Modes and
include:
• Target Glucose and Correct Above Values
• Insulin to Carb Ratio
• Correction Factor
• Duration of Insulin Action
• Reverse Correction
• Minimum Glucose for Calculations
The Activity Feature
The Activity feature is an optional feature in Automated Mode. When enabled,
the Activity feature reduces automated insulin delivery and temporarily sets
the Target Glucose to 150 mg/dL. The Activity feature is ideal during times of
anticipated decreases in insulin needs such as aerobic exercise, or other periods
of caution towards hypoglycemia.
Activity can be set for 1-24 hours in one-hour increments. Upon cancellation or
expiration of the dened time period, full automated insulin delivery starts on its own
and SmartAdjust™ technology returns to using the Target Glucose dened in settings.
Beginning Automated Mode
An active Pod and CGM transmitter serial number are required to switch to Automated Mode. Users can
switch to Automated Mode immediately with the rst Pod.
■With the first Pod wear, since no recent insulin delivery history is available, SmartAdjust™
technology uses the user-entered Basal Program as a baseline to initiate automated insulin
delivery. As a safety measure, automated insulin delivery will be more restrained for the rst Pod.
■ With subsequent Pod changes, SmartAdjust™ technology uses the “adaptive basal rate” as a
baseline for automated insulin delivery.
- The adaptive basal rate is based on insulin delivery history.
- Adaptivity adjusts with each Pod change to meet individual insulin needs.

Automated Mode Exits
A user will be prompted to switch to Manual Mode to
complete certain actions. These actions include:
■ Manually pausing and starting insulin delivery.
■Editing a Basal Program.
■ Changing the time or time zones.
In rare instances, a user will be required to switch to Manual
Mode if they receive an Automated Delivery Restriction. This
advisory alarm occurs in Automated Mode when insulin was
either paused or at maximum delivery for too long. The user
will be instructed to use a meter to check their blood glucose
(BG) and determine next steps. The user will need to switch
to Manual Mode for at least ve minutes and should not
return to Automated Mode until conrming CGM accuracy.
Condent Diabetes Management
Viewing History:
The Omnipod 5 App includes a CGM Graph to display
CGM readings and historical insulin delivery.
The History summary, including CGM time in range details
and insulin delivery, and a list of automated events can
also be accessed from the History Detail screen.
Cloud-Based Management:
The Omnipod 5 App will provide automatic ow of data to the
cloud-based data management system on an hourly basis.
This allows healthcare providers to review insulin delivery
and sensor glucose patterns without manual uploads.
Connectivity to cellular data or Wi-Fi is important when
using the Omnipod 5 System. Staying connected to cellular
data or Wi-Fi will allow notication of important over-the-
air updates as well as seamless auto-uploading of data
to Insulet’s secure cloud. The Omnipod 5 Controller is
equipped with a SIM card that allows connection to cellular
data at no cost.
SmartBolus Calculator
Omnipod 5 is the only system to incorporate CGM value and trend into the
Bolus Calculator.
CGM-Informed
■Automatically increases or decreases suggested bolus based on CGM
value and trend.
■ Available in both Automated and Manual Modes.
Insulin on Board (IOB)
■May reduce the suggested bolus based on existing IOB.
■ IOB may come from previous meal boluses, previous correction boluses,
or automated insulin deliveries.
Troubleshooting System Communication
Pod & CGM
At times, the Pod and CGM may lose connection while in Automated Mode.
Common reasons for loss of communication may include:
■Pod and CGM not being within line of sight on the body.
■Temporary loss of communication due to environmental interference.
■ Sensor warm-up or required calibration.
When this occurs, SmartAdjust™ technology can no longer fully adjust automated insulin delivery
and Automated Mode becomes “Limited”.
In Automated Mode: Limited, the Omnipod 5 System will deliver basal insulin based on a calculation
of user-entered settings and past insulin delivery history. When the System enters Limited state,
SmartAdjust technology never gives more than the Basal Program that would be active during
Manual Mode.
Check the Dexcom G6 app to see if there are any necessary CGM actions required to re-establish
communication. Full Automated Mode will automatically resume once CGM values become available.
Pod & Omnipod 5 App
At times, the Omnipod 5 App may lose communication with the active Pod. If this occurs, the POD INFO
tab on the Omnipod 5 App will display “No Pod Communication” and the user will have the option to tap
MORE INFORMATION for details.
When there is no Pod communication, the Pod continues delivering insulin according to settings active
on the Pod before losing communication. For example, automated insulin delivery from the Pod will
continue in Automated Mode.
Bring the Controller or smartphone within 5 feet of the Pod to restore communication.
