Receiver Overview - Dexcom G5 mobile User Manual

The receiver is neither water resistant nor waterproof and can get damaged if moisture
gets inside, so keep it away from any liquids and very high humidity. Keeping the micro
USB port closed helps prevent damaging fluids and dust from getting inside the receiver. If
your receiver does get wet, test it to make sure the speaker and vibrations still work (see
Section 11.3).
If you want to use the receiver along with a smart device, you need to set them
up separately.
Remember, you cannot use a combination of smart devices during a sensor session; select
just one.
