Once pairing is complete, you will start receiving glucose values and notifications after a 1-hour warm-up period.

  • Some Android smartphone models may wrongly suggest that your PIN code will be either 0000 or 1234 rather than the 6 digits on the twist cap; ignore this note from the operating system and always refer to the PIN from the twist cap.

  • After your sensor has warmed up to your body, you will need to calibrate it to ensure your glucose values are as accurate as possible and to use them to make therapy decisions

The sensor is now successfully connected to the Accu-Chek SmartGuide app! Next, see how to calibrate your sensor.
