   Note : If you see a Sensor Not Started alert, contact Dexcom support. If glucose alerts and readings do not match symptoms or expectations, use a BG meter to make diabetes treatment decisions.

Connection Tip

If the Out of Range icon is on the insulin pump screen (pictured on the right), then the sensor is not communicating with the pump. When a sensor glucose reading cannot be provided, “- – -” shows in the place where the sensor glucose value is normally shown.

• For ideal connectivity, it is suggested that the user faces the pump screen out and away from their body and wear the pump on the same side of the body that they wear the sensor
• Make sure that nothing is rubbing or obstructing the sensor
• Please note that wireless communication does not work well through water so the transmission range is much less
