To set up a new patch and transmitter for the Dexcom G6, follow these steps:

1. Attach the Transmitter:
- Remove the transmitter from the box.
- Wipe the back of the transmitter with an alcohol wipe and let it dry.
- Avoid touching or scratching the metal contacts.

2. Insert the Transmitter:
- Slide the narrow end of the transmitter into the narrow end of the holder.
- Press the wide end until it clicks into the holder.

3. Secure the Patch:
- Rub your fingers around the transmitter three times to secure the adhesive.
- If the patch starts peeling, use an overpatch or medical tape for extra support.

4. Start the Sensor on the Receiver:
- Wait up to 30 minutes for pairing.
- Tap "Start Sensor" to begin the 2-hour warmup period.
- Keep the receiver within 6 meters of the transmitter.

5. Complete Setup:
- After warmup, tap "Next" to access readings and alerts.
- Optionally, download and set up the Dexcom app on your smart device.

Following these steps ensures proper installation and function of your Dexcom G6 system.
