Set Up Receiver Alert Sounds - Dexcom G5 Getting Started Manual

9.4 Set Up Receiver Alert Sounds

You can choose your receiver Alert sounds. The sound you choose affects all Alerts. The
default is Normal. See below for an overview of the different sound options.
NOTE: No matter what sound you pick, all Alerts will notify you by
vibrating first. There will be no audible beep if you confirm the Alert
after the first vibration.
Vibrate: Use when you want to be alerted by vibration
instead of sound.
Exception: The Urgent Low Glucose Alarm at 55 mg/dL will
still make a sound. It will alert you by vibration first, followed
by beeps 5 minutes later if not confirmed.
Soft: Use when you want your Alert sound to be discreet.
This sets all the Alarm and Alerts to lower volume beeps.
Normal: This is the default. It is a medium volume.
Attentive: Use when you want your Alert to be noticeable.
This sets all the Alarm and Alerts to loud with distinctive
melodies.
HypoRepeat: Use when you want extra alerts for the Urgent
Low Glucose Alarm.
This repeats the Urgent Low Glucose Alarm every
5 seconds until you confirm it or your reading rises above
55 mg/dL.
