PRECAUTIONS
to work properly when the shield is in place. If the
spacer moves and the receiver speaker volume is low,
you might miss alerts or alarms.
• Inspect the receiver shield, seals and spacer for tears
or other damage or defects before you place the
components on the receiver. Do not use any parts of the
receiver shield pack that are damaged or defective. If the
receiver shield, seals and spacer are torn, damaged or
otherwise defective after giving to the patient, the patient
should return the receiver to the healthcare professional
for a replacement. The damaged or defective receiver
shield should not be taken off by the patient. If a defect
or malfunction is suspected, the healthcare professional
should retain the shield and contact Dexcom Technical
Support. The shield helps protect the user and
healthcare professionals from contamination and allows
the receiver to function properly.
If a patient returns a receiver because
the spacer is torn, damaged or defective,
discard the shield, seal and spacer and
replace with a new shield, seal and spacer.
