Your sensor will continue to give you sensor glucose readings
for up to seven days. The performance of a sensor has not been
tested beyond seven days.
HELPFUL HINTS:
• Do not remove the transmitter from the sensor pod while the pod is
attached to your skin.
• Do not dispose of your transmitter. It is reusable. The same transmitter is
used for each session until you have reached the end of the transmitter
battery life.
• Consult your local waste management authorities for appropriate
procedures for disposal of blood contacting components (sensor and
applicator).
• In some cases your sensor session may end before you have completed
a full 7-day period. If this happens, see Chapter 9, Section 9.6, Sensor
Shut-Off Troubleshooting.
