It's that time of year again, so don't forget to change the clock setting on your pump this coming weekend. 🙂

I actually remembered to change mine when we went to France this last time - and change it back on the ferry coming home. Glad to say the meter on the Roche just follows suit as soon as you turn it on, the first time after changing the pump.
It therefore only takes 30 secs tops.

Hang on, you mean these ultra expensive gadgets can't auto change clock times when a cheapola off the shelf ?10 Bush bedside alarm clock can? Sheesh these manufacturers are seriously lazy. And sorry for jumping in on the great advice. Am just shocked at how many corners are cut on making them sadly is all

They do NOT cut corners. How long do you think it takes for a new medical device to be allowed out into the wild? or how much does it cost?
So they can't just add it on, would be another X months/years and another ? half a million quid before they had approval again.
They are bound to be 'old technology' in truth, by the time any of us get our hands on them. Utterly ridiculous to compare it to a cheapo alarm clock.
