Updating my pump to the latest software version

Before you begin, please note the following:

• These instructions are for those currently using the MiniMed Flex system and are updating to the latest software version.
• After completing your software update, confirm your settings are correct and start your new sensor when you're ready.

Important: Make sure MiniMed Flex pump and mobile device^† are fully charged before you start to update the software and that you have set aside some uninterrupted time (around 35 minutes in most cases)  to complete the process.

How to update your software

1. Open the MiniMed^TM app and confirm you're logged in to CareLink. You can do this by tapping the Profile menu icon in the top right corner of the Home screen, then tap Carelink. If you are not logged in, please do so now by tapping Log in and entering your CareLink^TM Personal account username and password.
   
   
2. Download and install the software update
   Follow the steps in this guide to complete the update process. The app will also walk you through the software updates step-by-step.
   
   
3. Start your new sensor
   Your current sensor will continue to work and can stay in place after the update until it expires. If you want to switch sensors after the update, you can apply and pair it now. Here are some helpful resources:
   
   Instinct sensor support
   Simplera Sync^TM support
   
   If you are currently wearing a sensor that is not expired, you can continue using it.
   

† A compatible device is needed to complete the software update. Check to see if your device is compatible. Don't have a compatible device? Contact MiniMed at 1-800-646-4633 option 2 to request an App Manager, a device with the MinMed apps preloaded so you can it with MiniMed products, including the MiniMed Flex pump.
