Dexcom G6 User Manual page 116

When your most recent G6 reading is above 400 mg/dL or below 40 mg/dL, you won't
get a number. Instead, your display device will say LOW or HIGH.
Graphs and Events
The graph shows where your G6 readings have been for the past 3 hours. It plots your
G6 readings every 5 minutes.
• The most recent G6 reading is the white dot on the right. Black dots are past G6
readings.
• The numbers on the right show glucose level in mg/dL. The numbers on the bottom
show the last 3 hours.
• The horizontal white lines show your High and Low Alert levels. Your glucose is:
• High when your dots are in the yellow area of the graph.
• In your target range (between your high and low alert settings) when in the gray
area.
• Low when in the red area.

The number comes with an arrow, too. It shows the direction your
sensor glucose is going. Later in this chapter, we'll go over trend
arrows in detail.
