Charging Your Receiver Battery From An Ac Power Outlet - Dexcom G4 Platinum User Manual

4
Charge your receiver battery before each sensor insertion. Periodically
check your battery level to make sure it has enough charge.
If your battery drains, it will keep the time and date for 3 days without
being charged. After 3 days, the receiver will prompt you to reset the
time and date (see Chapter 5, Section 5.2, The Settings Menu).
When the receiver is used in a healthcare facility, charging must take
place away from the patient.
WARNING
Do not use the Dexcom G4 PLATINUM (Pediatric)
System in critically ill patients. It is not known how
different conditions or medications common to the
critically ill population may affect the performance of the
system. Sensor glucose readings may be inaccurate
in critically ill patients, and solely relying on the sensor
glucose alerts and readings for treatment decisions could
result in you missing severe hypoglycemia (low blood
glucose) or hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) events.
