11.7 Confirming Alarm/Alerts
Alarm/Alerts repeat every 5 minutes until you confirm them, or until the Alarm/Alert condition
ends. If using both display devices, you’ll need to confirm Alarm/Alerts on each device
separately.
Due to its medical importance, the Alarm Repeat setting can't be turned off. Even after an
Alarm is confirmed, if your sensor’s glucose readings remain at or below 55 mg/dL, the
Alarm repeats every 30 minutes until readings are above 55 mg/dL.
