Hold on to the Applicator. Then pull the Safety Lock straight out away from the Applicator, in the
direction the arrows show in the picture below.
NOTE: The Safety Lock can be used later for Transmitter removal. Keep this piece to help you remove
the Transmitter at the end of a CGM session. When your CGM session is over, follow the steps in
Chapter 9 in Section II to remove the Transmitter.
4. Insert the Sensor
Once you have placed the Applicator on your belly and removed the Safety Lock, you are ready to insert
the Sensor. To insert your Sensor, follow the next 4 steps below (a – d).
a.
Using one hand, you may want to pinch up the skin, at the edge of the white adhesive. DO NOT
pinch up in the middle section of the plastic base. With your other hand, place two fingers above
the Collar on the Applicator Barrel so they are resting above the Collar.
b.
Place your thumb on the white Plunger. Push the Plunger down completely, making sure it is
flush against the Applicator Barrel. You should hear 2 "clicks". This action inserts the Needle and
Sensor under your skin.
When you are pushing down
on the Plunger, DO NOT pull
back on the Collar.
