Important Things to Know About Getting Reliable Results
Caution:

Movement of the sensor support mount or excessive perspiration at the sensor insertion site due

to activities like vigorous exercise or bumping against objects may lead to poor adhesion of the support

mount to the skin and then cause the sensor to dislodge. If the sensor dislodges due to the sensor support

adhesive failing to adhere to the skin, you may get unreliable results or no results. The system may not

provide a warning in such circumstances. Choose the proper sensor insertion site when inserting the

sensor and prepare the site by following the instructions for site preparation.
Caution:

If your results from the Continuous Monitoring mode seem erroneous, check and make sure

that the sensor has not dislodged. If you notice the sensor is dislodged from the skin, or if you see that the

adhesive on your overbandage or the sensor support mount is coming loose, discard the old sensor and

insert a new sensor.
