Applying a Sensor
It is recommended to apply the sensor to the outside or back of the upper arm,
the abdomen or the outside of the thigh. Avoid areas with scars, moles, stretch
marks, or lumps.
Before application, use alcohol pads to clean the skin where you want to place
the sensor, wait for a minute to let the skin dry. To prevent discomfort or skin
irritation, select a different location than the last place you wore a sensor.
Open the sensor package and take out the sensor applicator.
