Water and G7
Issue
You want to shower, swim, or bathe wearing your G7.
Solution
Once inserted, the sensor is waterproof up to 8 feet. The receiver isn't. Swim, shower,
and take a bath with the sensor, but leave the receiver out of the water.
If you're in or near water, your display device may need to be closer than 20feet to get
sensor readings. If you're in water, you may not get sensor readings until you get out.
The patch stays on longer if kept dry. For details, go to the Adhesive Patch section in
the Troubleshooting chapter.

Cover the sensor with a lead apron
