for personalizing your glucose level Alerts, repeat Alerts, turning on your Rising/Falling Alerts,
and turning on your Signal Loss Alert.
Alerts Main Menu
The Low/High Alert option lets you adjust your Low/High glucose Alert level (mg/dL). If you
are using your Dexcom G5 for treatment decisions, keep your Alerts on.
The Advanced option lets you turn on Low/High Repeat, Rise/Fall Rate Alerts, and Signal
Loss Alert.
Low/High Repeat
In the previous chapter, you learned that confirming an Alert stops it from repeating. If you
want to continue to be re-alerted until your glucose levels are back in your target range, turn
on the Low/High Repeat option.
The default setting for Low/High Repeat is Off.
