• Where to Store
You can store your sensors at room temperature or in your refrigerator – as long
as it is between 2°C and 30°C. Do not store sensors in the freezer.
Follow G6 instructions. If you do not, you could have a severe low or high glucose
event.
Precautions
• Do not Use if Expired
Do not use expired sensors, because they may give incorrect results. Check the
package label for the expiration date. It is in YYYY-MM-DD (Year-Month-Day)
format.
• Check Package
Do not use sensor if its sterile package has been damaged or opened, because it
might cause an infection.
• Clean and Dry Skin
Clean and dry your hands and your insertion site before inserting your sensor.
Wash your hands with soap and water, not gel cleaners, and then dry them
before opening the sensor package. If your hands are dirty when you insert the
sensor, you may get germs on the insertion site and get an infection.
