PRECAUTIONS :
Clean Before Use: Clean your hands before sensor insertion. To minimize infection risk, wipe
the insertion site with an alcohol wipe, and ensure the site is dry prior to sensor insertion. This
helps the sensor stay attached to your body.
DO NOT Place the Sensor on Any Area of the Body other than the Upper Arm: Placing
the sensor on other areas of the body has not been tested and the risks are unknown.
Select an Appropriate Sensor Insertion Site: Do NOT place the sensor on skin that is painful
to touch, higher than surrounding skin, crusting or bleeding; or on areas with scars, moles,
tattoos, irritation, stretch marks, bones, or lumps. Select a skin area that stays flat during
normal daily activities (without bending or folding) and is unlikely to be bumped, pushed, or
laid on while sleeping.
Change the Sensor Insertion Site for the Next Sensor Insertion: Placing the next sensor on
the same spot will increase skin irritation or redness and could potentially lead to scabs.
Excessive Sweat or Body Movement Can Cause Your Sensor to Loosen. Intense exercise
or heavy work may cause the adhesive patch to loosen due to sweat or body movement.
Do not insert the sensor in muscle, areas constrained by clothing or accessories or sites
subjected to rigorous movement during exercise to avoid accidental sensor removal. If the
adhesive patch is loose or if the sensor tip is pulled out from your skin, the sensor reading
may be unavailable or unreliable. Remove and replace the sensor if it starts to loosen, and do
NOT attempt to reinsert the sensor.
PRECAUTION :
The red circle indicates where a needle comes out when inserting. Do NOT touch the region
with any part of your body where is not intended to insert a sensor.
