What You Need To Know
Traveling by Air
You may use your System while on an aircraft,
following any requests from the flight crew.
• While using the App, you can continue to get
Sensor glucose readings after you put your
smartphone in airplane mode.
• The Reader is classed as a Medical-Portable
Electronic Device (M-PED) that meets all required
M-PED emission standards for safe use onboard
an aircraft: RTCA/DO160, Section 21, Category M.
• Some airport full-body scanners include x-ray or
millimeter radio-wave, which you cannot expose
your Sensor to. The effect of these scanners
has not been evaluated and the exposure may
damage the Sensor or cause inaccurate results.
To avoid removing your Sensor, you may request
another type of screening. If you do choose to go
through a full-body scanner, you must remove
your Sensor.
IMPORTANT:
Alarms will not be issued while your smartphone
is in airplane mode unless you enable Bluetooth.
