Sorry, but I think companies need to put people first, rather than worrying about being offended when a customer comments on (or complains about) a design flaw, and about whether they're going to make a buck off a potential sale! To me, a timer IS a flaw & should be fixed or changed. After four years, regardless of whether a person's with Disetronic/Accu-chek or whomever, they have the option & the right to go to ANY pump company they want, providing insurance is willing to pay (or they have the money to purchase out of pocket). So why bother to put a timer in the pump!? (Don't answer that: It's a rhetorical question. )

The Reference manual for the Spirit pump is no longer available on the Disetronic Web Site.

I don't know if Disetronic has been feeling the heat about their new "feature" or if their website administrator dropped the ball, but it is gone. You'll also notice that all the links in this thread that document the evidence collected to date are also dead.

This page has links to all the Disetronic reference manuals...and conveniently enough, the link to the Spirit's manual is dead:

Disetronic USA - Insulin Pump Therapy |*Resources |*Reference |*Product User Guides


Oversight or whitewash? You be the judge.
