Your sensor will continue to give you sensor glucose readings
for up to seven days. The performance of a sensor has not been
tested beyond seven days.
HELPFUL HINTS:
• Do not remove the transmitter from the sensor pod while the pod is
attached to your skin.
• Do not dispose of your transmitter. It is reusable. The same transmitter is
used for each session until you have reached the end of the transmitter
battery life.
• Consult your local waste management authorities for appropriate
procedures for disposal of blood contacting components (sensor and
applicator).
• In some cases your sensor session may end before you have completed
a full 7-day period. If this happens, see Chapter 9, Section 9.6, Sensor
Shut-Off Troubleshooting.

Questions and answers
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.
7. Press the SELECT button to confirm the new setting.
This adjustment allows you to set a specific threshold instead of receiving a general "high" reading.
