Please do not remove your sensor if the alert has been present for less than 3 hours.
Sensor Updating occurs when the sensor signals are outside of the expected range.
Please check that the sensor is still securely taped to the skin and not dislodged.
The alert may persist for up to 3 hours but often resolves itself within a shorter period and will either: display the SG value again, request a calibration or advise you to change your sensor. Continue sensing and monitor your pump because the system may recover.
In the event that the updating lasts for more than 3 hours, the recommendation is to replace the sensor to maximise the time in SmartGuard™ feature.

The SmartGuard™ feature calculates a bolus based on the current BG or SG reading and carbs, and may make an additional adjustment to the bolus.
The bolus amount is adjusted down if the SmartGuard™ feature predicts a risk of hypoglycaemia after the meal.
This feature is known as Safe Meal Bolus. Safe Meal Bolus considers many things in the bolus calculator before suggesting an insulin dose, these include:
- Current blood glucose or sensor glucose.
- Current glucose trend.
- Insulin on board from recent meal insulin boluses.
- Manual corrections or auto correction boluses.
- Carbohydrates (carbs) entered into the Bolus feature.
- Estimated carbs remaining from previous meals.
