62 Appendix A: Troubleshooting
Dexcom G6
®
System • Using Your G6
Twelve hours later, it reminds you to calibrate again. Then in another 12 hours, you
get another reminder. For the rest of your sensor session, the G6 prompts you to
calibrate once every 24 hours.
Make sure you calibrate when prompted. And make sure you
thoroughly clean your hands before taking a fingerstick. If you
do not, your G6 readings may not be aligned with your meter.
In other words: Do not wait – calibrate!
If using the app and receiver, just enter your calibration in
one. In less than 10 minutes, the transmitter will send the
information to the other device.
Receiver: Set Up Without Sensor Code
1
When setting up the receiver or inserting a new
sensor without using a sensor code, on the Sensor
Code screen, tap No Code.
If you do not enter sensor code, you will have to
calibrate your G6 daily during this sensor session.
Only enter the sensor code from the applicator you
insert.
On the next few screens (not included in these
steps), follow onscreen instructions to:
• Enter transmitter SN (if you are using a new
transmitter).
• Insert sensor.
• Attach transmitter.
2
Tap Start Sensor.
Wait for 2-hour sensor warmup to finish.
