Helpful Information
Important: Do NOT remove or replace the transmitter from the sensor support mount while wearing
a sensor. If you notice that the transmitter is not properly attached, replace the sensor with a new
sensor and then re-attach the transmitter.
• Make sure that you establish communication between the receiver and transmitter by reconnecting
them if necessary.
• After you attach your transmitter, you must keep your receiver within 10 feet of the transmitter to
maintain a consistent connection. If the connection between the transmitter and receiver is broken
you will not receive continuous glucose readings.
• The connection can also be affected by objects getting between the transmitter and receiver, by
nearby large metal objects, and by some electronic devices that produce radio frequencies.
• If a connection alarm sounds, move the transmitter closer to the receiver to restore the connection.
If you have trouble with the connection between the transmitter and receiver, see Section 10 on
troubleshooting.
