Sensor Applicator
Applies the Sensor to your body.
The Sensor measures and stores glucose
readings when worn on your body. It initially
comes in two parts: one part is in the Sensor
Pack and the other part is in the Sensor
Applicator. By following the instructions, you
prepare and apply the Sensor on the back of your upper arm. The
Sensor has a small, exible tip that is inserted just under the skin. The
Sensor can be worn for up to 14 days.
Sensor
Measures your glucose while on your body (only
visible after applied).
Using Your Sensor
CAUTIONS:
• The Sensor Pack and Sensor
Applicator are packaged as a set and
have the same Sensor code. Check
that the Sensor codes match before
using your Sensor Pack and Sensor
Applicator. Do NOT use Sensor Packs
and Sensor Applicators with different
Sensor codes together as this will
result in incorrect glucose readings.
• Intense exercise may cause your Sensor to loosen due to sweat
or movement of the Sensor. If the Sensor is becoming loose
or if the Sensor tip is coming out of your skin, you may get no
readings or unreliable low readings. Remove and replace your
Sensor if it starts to loosen and follow the instructions to select
an appropriate application site. Do not attempt to reinsert the
Sensor. Contact Bigfoot Customer Care at [phone] if
your Sensor becomes loose or falls off before the end of the
wear period.
