The transmitter can be cleaned and disinfected up to 122 times or for one year, whichever comes first.
Discard the transmitter at this point. If the transmitter is used beyond 122 times or one year, the
cleaning and disinfection process may damage the device. Contact a local Medtronic support
representative to order a new transmitter.
To clean and disinfect the transmitter:
1. Wash hands and put on gloves.
2. Inspect the inside of the transmitter's connector opening for any sign of body fluid. For
instructions on how to inspect the connector pins, see Inspecting the transmitter connector
pins, page 22.
CAUTION: The person inspecting the transmitter must have sufficient vision that
enables him or her to see small drops of body fluid or debris.
WARNING: If there is any body fluid in the connector opening, the transmitter must be
discarded. Because the transmitter contains a battery, do not discard in a bio-waste
container. Instead, continue to clean and disinfect the transmitter, and then discard
according to local regulations for battery disposal (non-incineration).
