Important Information About Your Blood Glucose Monitoring System
Intended Use
The FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for self-testing outside the body (in
vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home as an aid in monitoring the eectiveness of a
diabetes control program by quantitatively measuring glucose in fresh whole blood from the nger,
upper arm and palm. The FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Monitoring System should not be used for the
diagnosis of or screening of diabetes or for neonatal use. It is intended to be used by a single person
and should not be shared. Alternate site testing should be done only during steady state times (when
glucose is not changing rapidly). The FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the
FreeStyle Lite Blood Glucose Meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole
blood samples drawn from the ngertips, upper arm and palm.
IMPORTANT:
The device must not be used on more than one person including other family members due to the
risk of spreading infection. All parts of the device and its accessories are considered biohazardous
and can potentially transmit infectious diseases, even after performing the cleaning procedure.1,2
If the meter is being operated by a second person who is providing testing assistance to the user,
the meter and lancing device should be cleaned and disinfected prior to use by the second person.
Use only FreeStyle Lite test strips and FreeStyle® control solution with this meter. Other products
can produce inaccurate results.

• Consult your healthcare professional to determine the range that is appropriate for you.
Warning:

Limitations:
• For in-vitro diagnostic use only (external use only).
• Not for diagnosis of or screening for diabetes.
• Not for testing of neonates.
• The test strips are for single use only. Do not reuse test strips.
• The system can give false results greater than 10,000 feet (3,048 meters) above sea level.
• The system can give false results outside the hematocrit range: 15% to 65%.
• Individuals experiencing a hypoxia state may yield falsely low results.
• In situations of decreased peripheral blood ow, capillary blood testing may not be
appropriate as it may not represent the true physiological state. Examples would include but
are not limited to: severe dehydration caused by diabetic ketoacidosis or the hyperosmolar
non-ketotic state, hypotension, shock, or peripheral vascular disease.4, 5, 6
• This device should not be used to test critically ill patients.
• Alternative site testing (AST) should not be used to calibrate continuous glucose monitors
(CGMs) nor for use in insulin dose calculations.
• AST testing should only be done during steady-state times (when glucose is not changing rapidly).
• For single patient use at home by a lay user.
• Severe dehydration or excessive water loss may cause false low results. If you believe you are
suering from severe dehydration, consult your physician immediately.
• Cholesterol up to 500 mg/dL or triglycerides up to 3,000 mg/dL do not signicantly aect test
results. However, glucose values in specimens beyond these levels, should be interpreted with
caution.

5. Apply and hold blood to 1 sample area of the test strip until:
• You see short lines moving clockwise on the display or
• You hear a beep
This indicates the test strip obtained enough blood and the meter is checking
your glucose level. If a short line does not appear after 5 seconds, the sample may
be too small. You can add blood to the same side only for up to 60 seconds. If the
test does not start after applying blood drop, go to Troubleshooting section.
(Example only)
6. View result
The result appears on the display when the test is complete. The time that the
meter takes to display a result depends on your blood glucose level. Higher
glucose levels require more time.
Note: If you see an“Er1, Er2, Er3, or Er4” on the display, it is an error code. Go to

Contact Customer Care for information on how to obtain control solution.
Control Solution Information
• Use only FreeStyle control solution with the meter.
• Replace the cap securely on the bottle immediately after use.
• Control solution results are accurate only between 59° – 104° F (15° – 40° C).
• Do not add water or other liquid to control solution.
• There are three levels of control solution available (Low, Normal, High).
For information on how to obtain control solution, contact Customer Care.
