Helpful Information

•Your receiver and transmitter must be linked, connected, and calibrated in order to use the system in the Continuous Monitoring mode.

•When you sleep, place the receiver on a high headboard or on a nearby dresser rather than clipping it to your bed clothing or taking it to bed. Be aware that if the receiver is set to vibrate and if you place it too far from you, you may not hear it vibrate.

•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, like nearby large metal objects, and by some electronic devices that produce radio frequencies.

•As a periodic check, turn your receiver on a few times everyday to make sure that it is still producing glucose results.

•As a periodic check, turn on the low glucose alarm everyday to make sure that it sounds an alarm (or vibrates) based on your settings.

•If a connection alarm sounds, adjust the placement of the receiver, to restore the connection.

Step 2 of this Section describes how to maintain connection between the receiver and transmitter. For general troubleshooting, refer to Section 10 as well.

•If the display turns off, press the RIGHT Option button to turn it back on.
