Your Sensor is water-resistant and can be worn while bathing, showering, or swimming.

Note: Do NOT take your Sensor deeper than 3 feet (1 meter) or immerse it longer than 30 minutes in water.

Your Sensor should not interfere with your sleep. It is recommended that you scan your Sensor before going to sleep and when you wake up because your Sensor holds only 8 hours of data at a time. For example, if you sleep for 9 hours without scanning your Sensor, 1 hour of data will not be collected and a gap will appear on your glucose graph.

Place your device nearby so you will receive alarms and any reminders you have set.

You may use your System while on an aircraft, following any requests from the flight crew.

IMPORTANT: Alarms will not be issued while your phone is in airplane mode unless Bluetooth is enabled.

While using the App, you can continue to scan your Sensor to get glucose readings after you put your phone in airplane mode. If using Android Phone, also turn NFC back on.

The Reader is classed as a Medical-Portable Electronic Device (M-PED) that meets all required M-PED emission standards for safe use onboard an aircraft: RTCA/DO160, Section 21, Category M.

Some airport full-body scanners include x-ray or millimeter radio-wave, which you cannot expose your Sensor to. The effect of these scanners has not been evaluated and the exposure may damage the Sensor or cause inaccurate results. To avoid removing your Sensor, you may request another type of screening. If you do choose to go through a full-body scanner, you must remove your Sensor.

The Sensor can be exposed to common electrostatic (ESD) and electromagnetic interference (EMI), including airport metal detectors. You can also keep your Reader on while going through these.
