How to Use Your User Guide
Start with the table of contents. Each chapter includes information to guide you
through your sensor session, from setting it up, to taking it off, and everything in
between.
All chapters in the G6 User Guide are structured the same way: The beginning of each
chapter lists what you’ll be able to do after you’ve finished, followed by the chapter’s
content. At the end, there’s a recap of what was covered and what’s in the next
chapter.
The appendices have additional information you may want to reference. For example,
about the warranty, and taking care of your device.
This User Guide isn’t meant to show you how to use your smart device. Contact your
smart device support or read your smart device’s user guide for assistance.
Label Symbols
Symbols may be found on the sensor, transmitter, and receiver package labels. These
symbols tell you about the proper and safe use of the G6. For a listing of what they
mean, see the Symbols Glossary in Appendix G and at dexcom.com/symbols.
1.3 Your Dexcom Account
You’ll need a Dexcom username and password to set up the Dexcom G6 App (app) and
for reordering. If you don't have a Dexcom user name and password, go to dexcom.
com and set up an account. Or, if you prefer, create your account in the app during
setup.
