4. Prepare for Application (Once your sensor is received)
Choose the right location: The Dexcom G7 sensor is applied to the back of your upper arm.
Clean the area: Use an alcohol wipe to clean and disinfect the application area. Allow it to dry completely.

Remove the sensor applicator from its packaging.
Peel off the adhesive backing from the applicator.
Place the applicator flat against your skin at the chosen site.
Press the button on the applicator to insert the sensor.
You may hear a click as the sensor is applied.
Gently lift the applicator away from your skin, leaving the sensor in place.
6. Activate the Sensor
Activate the sensor: Open the Dexcom app and follow the instructions to scan your new sensor. You’ll need to hold your smartphone close to the sensor to start it.
Wait for the warm-up period: The sensor will take about 60 minutes to calibrate before it begins transmitting glucose data.
