Wash the area with soap and water and shave the area completely. Whether you’re applying the sensor to your stomach or arm, it’s important to have clean, dry, smooth skin.

• Use the alcohol wipes provided and let it air dry completely.
• If you’re susceptible to skin irritation, pretreat the area with an adhesive barrier, like Skin Tac.
• Cover the sensor with a CGM patch or slick.
• Wait at least one hour before getting the sensor wet. This will give your adhesives a better chance to adhere to your skin.
