The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is an essential component of the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System. It is a small, reusable device that attaches to the Dexcom G6 Sensor and wirelessly sends your glucose readings to a compatible smartphone, smart device, or Dexcom G6 Receiver.

The transmitter works together with the Dexcom G6 Sensor, which is inserted just beneath the skin to measure glucose levels in the interstitial fluid (the fluid surrounding your body’s cells). After the sensor measures your glucose level, the transmitter sends this information wirelessly to your compatible display device, allowing you to view your glucose readings in real time.

By continuously transmitting glucose data throughout the day and night, the Dexcom G6 Transmitter helps people with diabetes monitor glucose trends without routine fingerstick calibrations.* This real-time information can help you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your diabetes management, such as adjusting insulin doses, planning meals, or recognizing patterns in your glucose levels.

*Fingerstick blood glucose measurements may still be needed if your glucose readings or alerts do not match your symptoms or expectations, or in other situations recommended by your healthcare provider or the manufacturer.

Before attaching the Dexcom G6 Transmitter to a new sensor, inspect it carefully for any signs of damage, cracks, or other defects. Do not use a damaged transmitter, as it may affect the performance of the Dexcom G6 System and could increase the risk of device malfunction.

To begin using the transmitter, first insert a new Dexcom G6 Sensor using the provided auto-applicator according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Make sure the sensor is securely attached before connecting the transmitter.

Next, align the Dexcom G6 Transmitter with the sensor and press it firmly into place until it clicks securely. Once attached, follow the instructions on your compatible smartphone, smart device, or Dexcom G6 Receiver to pair the transmitter. When replacing an existing transmitter, your display device will notify you when it is time to install a new one and will guide you through the pairing process. Depending on your device, pairing may occur automatically or require you to enter the transmitter information manually.

The Dexcom G6 System is factory calibrated, so routine fingerstick calibrations are not required.* However, if you are using the system in a specific clinical setting where calibration is recommended, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional.

Once the transmitter has been successfully paired and activated, it will begin wirelessly sending real-time glucose readings from the sensor to your compatible display device. You can then use the Dexcom G6 app or Dexcom G6 Receiver to monitor your glucose levels, view glucose trends, and receive alerts throughout the day and night.

*Fingerstick blood glucose measurements may still be needed if your glucose readings or alerts do not match your symptoms or expectations, or in other situations recommended by your healthcare provider or the manufacturer.

  • No dose

Before using the Dexcom G6 Transmitter, carefully read the manufacturer’s instructions and follow your healthcare provider’s recommendations. Proper use of the transmitter helps ensure accurate glucose readings and reliable performance.

Warranty and Replacement

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is typically covered by a limited warranty for the first 90 days after activation, provided it was activated within 5 months of its shipping date. Review the warranty terms and conditions supplied by Dexcom for complete coverage details.

The transmitter battery is designed to last for approximately 3 months. To avoid interruptions in glucose monitoring, it is recommended that you have a replacement transmitter available before the current transmitter reaches the end of its battery life.

Proper Use

Although the Dexcom G6 Transmitter can be used for multiple sensor sessions, it should only be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Using the transmitter beyond its recommended lifespan may reduce the accuracy and reliability of your glucose readings.

When attaching the transmitter to the sensor, make sure it is securely locked into place. Proper attachment is essential for accurate glucose monitoring and reliable wireless communication.

Device Compatibility

Before using the Dexcom G6 Transmitter, confirm that your smartphone, smart device, or Dexcom receiver is compatible with the Dexcom G6 System. Using an incompatible display device may prevent the system from working correctly.

Choking Hazard

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is a small device and may present a choking hazard.

  • Do not place the transmitter in your mouth.
  • Keep it out of the reach of young children.
  • Children should only use the device under adult supervision.

Do Not Share the Transmitter

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is intended for use by one person only.

Do not share your transmitter with anyone else, as this may result in:

  • Inaccurate glucose readings
  • Incorrect glucose reports
  • False alarms or alerts
  • Increased risk of improper diabetes management

Use Only With the Dexcom G6 System

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is designed exclusively for use with the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System.

Do not:

  • Use it with previous Dexcom CGM systems.
  • Mix transmitters or components from different Dexcom product generations.

Using incompatible components may prevent the system from functioning properly.

Healthcare Provider Guidance

Always use the Dexcom G6 Transmitter under the guidance of your healthcare provider. They can help you:

  • Learn how to use the system correctly.
  • Interpret your glucose readings and trends.
  • Respond appropriately to glucose alerts.
  • Adjust your diabetes management plan based on your glucose data.

Regular follow-up appointments can help ensure you are using the Dexcom G6 System safely and effectively.

Can I Swim or Shower While Wearing the Dexcom G6 Transmitter?

Yes. The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is water-resistant, so you can wear it while showering, bathing, or swimming. However, prolonged submersion in water or extended exposure to excessive moisture, such as in hot tubs or saunas, may affect the performance of the transmitter or sensor.

How Long Does the Dexcom G6 Transmitter Last?

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is designed to last for approximately 3 months (90 days) after activation. Once the battery reaches the end of its lifespan, the transmitter must be replaced with a new one to continue using the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System.

Do I Need to Charge the Dexcom G6 Transmitter?

No. The Dexcom G6 Transmitter does not require charging. It contains a built-in, non-rechargeable battery that is designed to last for about 3 months. When the battery is depleted, the entire transmitter must be replaced.

Can I Use the Dexcom G6 Transmitter With Other Diabetes Management Devices?

Yes. The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is compatible with the Dexcom G6 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System, including the Dexcom G6 app, compatible smartphones and smart devices, and the Dexcom G6 Receiver. Before using the system, verify that your display device is compatible with the Dexcom G6 System.

How Accurate Is the Dexcom G6 Transmitter?

The Dexcom G6 Transmitter is designed to provide accurate, real-time glucose readings when used with the Dexcom G6 Sensor and according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It continuously transmits glucose data to your compatible display device, helping you monitor glucose trends throughout the day and night. However, if your glucose readings or alerts do not match your symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to confirm your glucose level before making diabetes treatment decisions, and follow the guidance of your healthcare provider.
