Disconnecting the transmitter from the sensor
Before proceeding, have your system user guide available.
To disconnect the transmitter from the sensor:
1 Carefully remove any tape from the transmitter and sensor.
2 Remove the adhesive tab from the top of the transmitter.
3 Hold the transmitter as shown, and pinch the flexible side
arms of the sensor between your thumb and forefinger.
4 Gently pull the transmitter away from the sensor.
5 Follow the instructions that appear in the app or follow the
instructions in your system user guide.
Bathing and swimming
After the transmitter and sensor are connected, they form a waterproof seal to a
depth of 2.4 meters (eight feet) for up to 30 minutes. You can shower and swim
without removing them.
Tester
The tester is used to test the transmitter to make sure it is working. It is also used as
a required component for cleaning the transmitter. Properly connecting the tester to
the transmitter ensures that fluids do not come in contact with the connector pins
inside the transmitter. Fluids can cause connector pins to corrode and affect the
performance of the transmitter.
Do not twist the tester while attached to the transmitter. This will damage the
transmitter.
The tester can be used for one year. If you continue to use the tester for more than
one year, the connector pins inside the transmitter could be damaged, because the
tester cannot continue to provide a waterproof seal. For instructions on how to check
the connector pins, see Inspecting the transmitter connector pins, on page 8.
