Time: Let the date and time on your smart device automatically update when you
travel across time zones or switch between standard and daylight saving times. Don't
manually change your smart device time because you may not get readings or alerts
and it may make the time on the trend screen wrong.
Use electrical equipment as directed:
Use of accessories, cables, adapters, and chargers other than those
specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in
increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic
immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
Portable radio frequency communications equipment (including peripherals such as
antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 centimeters
to any part of the Dexcom G7 CGM System including cables specified by the
manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could
result.

No modifications to the Dexcom G7 CGM System are allowed.
Precautions
Check accessories: When using accessories such as headphones, Bluetooth
speakers, or smartwatches, you may get your alerts on only one, not all. After
connecting any accessories, make sure that your smart device settings allow you to
continue receiving alerts.
