HELPFUL HINTS:
• On the first alert notification the receiver will vibrate only (no beep).
Regardless of the specific alert profile you chose, if you confirm the initial
vibrate alert, you will not receive an additional audible alert.
• The fixed low alarm at 3.1 mmol/L cannot be turned off or adjusted.
• For the soft, normal, attentive and hyporepeat profiles the following alert
sequence will occur:
• The first alert is vibrate only.
• If the alert is not confirmed in five minutes, the system will
vibrate and beep.
• If the alert is not confirmed in five more minutes, the system
will vibrate and beep louder and this will continue at the same
volume level every five minutes until confirmed.
For the hyporepeat profile only:
• If the alert is confirmed and your sensor glucose readings
continue to be at or below 3.1 mmol/L your system will repeat
the alert sequence above in 30 minutes.
To confirm any alert press the SELECT button.

The mom set a high ceiling of 300. How do I get to an actual number and not a "high" reading
You can adjust the high glucose alert value on the Dexcom G4 by following these steps:
1. Press the button to select “High Alert.”
2. Press the UP or DOWN button to highlight “On/Off” and press the SELECT button to set this option.
3. Press the LEFT button to return to the previous screen.
4. Press the DOWN button to highlight “Level.”
5. Press the SELECT button and then use the UP or DOWN button to adjust the high glucose alert value.
6. The high glucose alert value can be set between 6.7 and 22.2 mmol/L in 0.1 mmol/L increments.
