6.4 TRANSMITTER REMOVAL
When you are ready to remove the Sensor, make sure to pull out the Sensor
Pod with the Transmitter still inside. Once the Sensor Pod is off your body, you
will need to remove the Transmitter. To do this you can use either of the two
methods below:
Method 1
The Safety Lock/Transmitter Key once removed from the Applicator (see
Chapter 3, Section 3.5) can be used as a tool to remove the Transmitter.
1. Place the Sensor Pod on a table.
2. Hold the rounded edge of the Transmitter Key.
3. Make sure the jagged edge of the Transmitter Key is facing down (the
direction away from the removal arrow) as shown below:
4. Insert the jagged edges so that they “hug” the Transmitter wings in the Sensor
Pod. Press the Transmitter Key down until you cannot press down anymore,
and the Transmitter wings will “pop” out of the Sensor Pod.
5. Remove the Transmitter and store it in a cool, dry place until your next glucose
monitoring session.
Method 2
If you did not save the Transmitter Key, you can simply use your pointer fi nger on
each hand and spread out the tabs at the back of the Sensor Pod (end closest to
the wings). The Transmitter wings will “pop” out of the Sensor Pod.
