App - Dexcom G6 User Manual

The receiver is a dedicated medical device with a two-day battery life. Use the receiver
if you are concerned about any problems with your smart device due to settings, lack
of storage, low smart device battery, etc.
Whether you carry the app or the receiver, remember to keep your display device on.
PRECAUTION
Is It On?
If the receiver or smart device is turned off (shut down), it will not show G6 readings
or alarm/alerts. Make sure your display device is turned on.
Follow G6 instructions. If you don't, you could have a severe low or high glucose event.
The following section walks you through setting up the app. To set up the receiver, go
to the next section. If you want to use both the receiver and the app, you need to set
each up separately. Make sure you have started your sensor session first before setting
up the other display device. See Appendix C for setting up peripheral devices.

5.3 App

Before starting your first sensor, pick the smart device. You can use the receiver with
one smart device during a session; however, you can't use multiple smart devices
during the same session. Part of your setup is entering the transmitter serial number
(SN). If by accident you enter the SN into more than one smart device, the system
warns you and you won't be able to complete the setup process.
