Removing Your Sensor
Step Action
1
Pull up the edge of the adhesive that keeps your
Sensor attached to your skin. Slowly peel away
from your skin in one motion.
Note: Any remaining adhesive residue on the
skin can be removed with warm soapy water or
isopropyl alcohol.
2
Discard the used Sensor. See Disposal section.
When you are ready to apply a new Sensor, follow the
instructions in the Applying Your Sensor and Starting Your Sensor
sections. If you removed your last Sensor before14 days of use,
you will be prompted to conrm that you would like to start a
new Sensor when you rst scan it.
Replacing Your Sensor
Your Sensor automatically stops working after 14 days of wear and
must be replaced. You should also replace your Sensor if you notice any
irritation or discomfort at the application site or if the Reader reports a
problem with the Sensor currently in use. Taking action early can keep
small problems from turning into larger ones.
CAUTION: If the glucose readings from the Sensor do NOT
seem to match with how you feel, check to make sure that your
Sensor has not come loose. If the Sensor tip has come out of
your skin, or your Sensor is coming loose, remove the Sensor
and apply a new one.
