EARLY SENSOR SHUT-OFF - SENSOR FAILURE

During a sensor session the receiver may detect a
series of issues with your sensor signal where it can
no longer determine your glucose reading. At this
time, the sensor session will end and show the screen
to the right. If you see this screen it means your
continuous glucose monitoring session has ended.
Press the SELECT button to clear this screen.
You will need to remove your sensor and insert a new sensor.

MANUAL SENSOR SHUT-OFF - "STOP SENSOR"

There may be times that you will want to manually stop your sensor session
before the end of the seven days. Some of these times may include removing
the sensor early due to:
• Calibration issues that cannot be resolved
• icon that does not resolve
• Sensor adhesion issues
• Lifestyle needs
HELPFUL HINTS:
• Based on whether you are in an active sensor session, the main menu
options will change.
- When you are in an active sensor session, you will not see the
"Start Sensor" option on the main menu.
- When you are not in an active sensor session, you will not see
the "Stop Sensor" option on the main menu.
• Remember to stop your sensor session if you remove your sensor before
the end of the full 7 day period.
