Answer: Your charger AND transmitter batteries are very low. Replace the charger's
AAA or LR-03 battery. If you now get the pattern for very low transmitter battery, leave
the transmitter on the charger for 8 hours to recharge. If the red light is still flashing after
8 hours, leave your transmitter on the charger for 24 hours. If the red light is still flashing
after its been charging continuously for 24 hours, call the HelpLine. It may be time to
replace your transmitter.
Question: I had my transmitter on the charger for a day. Will this damage my
transmitter?
Answer: It will not damage the transmitter. You cannot overcharge it.
Question: What should I do if the transmitter green light does not flash when connected
to the sensor?
Answer: Is the sensor inserted in the body? If it is not inserted, the transmitter will not
flash green or send signals to an insulin pump.
If the sensor is inserted in the body, you need to disconnect the transmitter from the
sensor, wait for several seconds and then reconnect. If the green light still does not flash,
charge the transmitter.
Question: Why didn't I see the transmitter green light flash after connecting it to the
tester?
Answer: Check the connection. If you still do not see a green light flash, fully recharge
the transmitter battery. Test the transmitter with the tester. If you still do not see a green
light flash, call the HelpLine. It may be time to replace your transmitter.
Cleaning the transmitter
Caution: Do not discard the transmitter in a medical waste container or
otherwise subject it to incineration. The transmitter contains a battery
that may explode upon incineration.
Caution: The charger and tester are NOT watertight. Do NOT immerse in water or
any other cleaning agent. If liquid gets inside the black connector of the
tester, shake the liquid out and allow to air dry.

1 Wash your hands thoroughly.
2 Attach the tester to the transmitter.
3 Dampen a clean cloth with mild liquid soap and warm water. Wipe the outside of the
