Avoid extreme temperatures
Extreme operating temperatures can affect PDM batteries and
interfere with System operation. Avoid using the PDM in temper-
atures below 40°F (5°C) or above 104°F (40°C).
Electrical interference
The PDM is designed to withstand normal radio interference and
electromagnetic fields. However, as with all wireless communica-
tion technology, certain operating conditions can interrupt
communication. For example, electric appliances such as micro-
wave ovens and electric machinery located in manufacturing
environments may cause interference. In most cases, interrup-
tions are easy to resolve (see Chapter 11, Communication
Failures).
Do not store or leave the PDM where it may be
exposed to extreme temperatures, such as inside a
car. Extreme heat or cold can cause the device to
malfunction.
Never attempt to test your blood glucose while your
PDM is connected via USB cable to a computer.
Doing so could result in electrical shock.
Only connect a USB cable to your PDM when down-
loading data to a computer. Other PDM functions are
disabled while a USB cable is connected, and the
PDM cannot communicate with the Pod.
The PDM is compatible only with Windows®-based
operating systems. Do not connect a USB cable
from your PDM or attempt to download your data to
a computer using a non-Windows®-based operating
system, as the PDM may alarm and require a reset.
When you connect a USB cable to the PDM, only use
a cable that is less than or equal to 9 feet (2.7 meters)
in length.
