19.2. Dexcom G6 Sensor Placement
e Bluetooth connection between the Sensor and the Pod is optimal when
the signal does not pass through the body. Keeping both devices at least 8 cm
(3 inches) apart and within the line of sight allows for consistent Transmitter
communication with the Pod.
Note: Line of sight means that the Pod and Sensor are worn on the same side
of the body such that the two devices can “see” one another without your body
blocking their communication.
