Make sure that your insulin is room temp before filling up the res and priming the tubing. That should make the bubbles go away.

I run my res down to the very end...a lot of times to the point where it tells me that only basal is running, no bolusing allowed. You shouldn't have a problem running it down to 2-5 units at all.
