How do I start a new sensor?

You must end the Dexcom G7 sensor session or grace period before you start a new sensor.
You can end it in one of two ways:
  • Automatically, when the grace period ends (you will get an alert letting you know)
  • Manually, before the grace period ends
Automatically: End sensor when grace period ends
    At the end of the grace period, you will get the Start New Sensor alert
    Select Start New Sensor and follow instructions on the screen.
Manually: End sensor before grace period ends
    - To end your session early from the app, go to Connections > Sensor
    - Tap either:
    Replace Sensor: If you want to start a new sensor immediately
    or
    Stop Sensor Session:
    If you want to stop this sensor without starting a new one
    - Then, follow the instructions on the app screens.
To end your session early from the receiver, go to Menu
Go to either:
Replace Sensor: If you want to start a new sensor immediately
or
Stop Sensor Session: If you want to stop this sensor without starting a new one
Then, follow the instructions on the app screens.
