Congratulations on your choice of the Dario lood Glucose Monitoring System.
The Dario System was created to make life easier for people with diabetes by
providing the right tools, information, and support in your pocket. It is a smart
phone-based monitoring system, featuring a pocket-sized meter with an
integrated lancing device and test strips, combined with an easy-to-use mobile
application.
Living with diabetes is a daily challenge. ut with the Dario System in your
pocket and the best support, you can thrive with diabetes.
This user guide describes how to properly setup and use your new Dario
System. It is recommended that you read this guide thoroughly in order to
familiarize yourself with the system and its many features.
Intended Use
Intended UseIntended Use
Intended Use
The Dario lood Glucose Monitoring System consists of the Dario lood
Glucose Meter, Dario Glucose Test Strips, Dario Glucose Control Solutions and
the Dario App as the display component of the Dario lood Glucose Monitoring
System. The Dario lood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for the
quantitative measurement of glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood
samples drawn from the fingertips. The Dario lood Glucose Monitoring
System is intended to be used by a single person and should not be shared.
The Dario lood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for self-testing outside
the body (in vitro diagnostic use) by people with diabetes at home to monitor
the effectiveness of diabetes control. The Dario lood Glucose Monitoring
System should not be used for the diagnosis or screening of diabetes or for
neonatal use.
The Dario lood Glucose Test Strips are for use with the Dario lood Glucose
Meter to quantitatively measure glucose (sugar) in fresh capillary whole blood
samples drawn from the fingertip.

The Dario Control Solutions are for use with the Dario lood Glucose Meter
and the Dario lood Glucose Test Strips to check that the meter and test strips
are working together properly and that the test is performing correctly.

The Dario System should not be used for the following purposes:
• The diagnosis of, or screening for, diabetes.
• Testing the glucose levels of neonates (children younger than 4
weeks of age).
• Testing glucose levels of arterial or venous blood.
• Testing glucose from sites other than the fingertip.
• Testing patients who are critically ill, in shock, or dehydrated.
If you are taking acetaminophen containing drugs (e.g. Tylenol) or
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) you may get inaccurate results with this
system. If you have a disease or condition in which uric acid levels
in your blood may be elevated (> 11 mg/dL), such as gout, you may
get inaccurate results with this system. If you have very high levels
of triglyceride (> 810 mg/dL), you may get inaccurate results with
this system. This system should not be used when undergoing
xylose absorption tests.

General Precautions
General PrecautionsGeneral Precautions
General Precautions
This section provides information about potential hazards that may harm your
Dario System or cause it to not function properly.
Inspect the Dario System prior to use. Avoid using any part of the system with
broken seals or expired dates. Do not attach or use a component if it is
damaged in any way, as it may not work properly.
• The Dario System is not water-resistant and should not get wet. If it
does get wet, wipe it with a clean, dry cloth.
• lood glucose testing with the Dario System should only be done in
temperatures between 50°F-95°F (10°C-35°C) and relative humidity
between 10-90%. Test results may not be correct if the room
temperature and/or humidity are outside this range.
• Modifications to the Dario System not expressly approved by
LabStyle Innovation Ltd. will void your warranty and could result in
injury.
• Avoid testing with your Dario System in altitudes higher than
10,000 feet (3,048 meters), as accuracy cannot be assured.
• Do not leave the meter in very hot or cold places. Do not leave it
near a heat source (radiator) or in a car in hot or cold weather.
• Do not store or use meter or test strips in an area where the
humidity is outside of the range 10-90%, such as a bathroom or
kitchen.
Additional Information
Additional InformationAdditional Information
Additional Information
For your safety, observe the following recommendations when monitoring
your blood glucose using the Dario System:
• It is recommended that you have a backup testing method
available. Failure to test could cause a delay in treatment decisions
and lead to a serious medical condition. Examples of backup testing
methods include a backup glucose meter device or testing by a

1

laboratory. Ask your health care provider about other possible
backup methods.
• Do not change your treatment based on a single result that is
inconsistent with how you feel or if you believe that your test result
could be incorrect. Contact your health care provider for further
advice.
• Never make changes to your diabetes control program or ignore
physical symptoms without consulting with your health care
provider.

The Dario System is a cloud-based diabetes management solution that
combines software applications with a stylish all-in-one device. The all-in-one
device features a lancing device, test strip cartridge, and a compact meter.
Together with a smart mobile device, the Dario System puts everything in your
pocket that you need to monitor and understand your diabetes. Our goal is to
provide the right combination of tools, knowledge, and motivation that you
need to succeed.
You can check your blood glucose with a small sample (0.3μl) of your blood
and receive results within (6) six seconds.
You can check and track your blood glucose readings the same way you check
everything else in life —on your mobile device.
The Dario Glucose Meter connects to smart mobile devices with an easy-to-use
mobile app. The Dario App provides real-time and actionable information so
that you always know where you stand and what to do next.
The Dario System not only logs and tracks your glucose levels, but also food,
activity, moods, and more. The Dario System can even alert your caregivers
when you need special attention.

The miniature glucose meter
consists of
the
following components:
• An audio connector that is plugged into the
audio jack port of your smart mobile device.
• A strip port for insertion of the test strip.
The glucose meter receives its power from the
mobile device. It does not require batteries or any
other electrical source. When not in use, the meter
snaps into its slot in the housing for protected
storage.
(J) Dario Housing
The Dario Housing (also referred to as the device
housing or simply “housing”) is the main part of the
Dario all-in-one device. It holds all the parts in place
and consists of the lancing device, the meter slot,
and the housing for the test strips cartridge.

uses a 30G lancet.
To replace the
lancet, remove the orange lancing device cover, pull
out the used lancet, and replace it with a sterile one.
Disposable covers
To avoid the risk of transmitting
bloodborne
pathogens, it is advised to use the disposable sleeve
to cover your smart mobile device while taking the
blood glucose test. When the test is concluded,
remove the cover from your smart mobile device
and dispose it together with the used lancet and test
strip in accordance with the instructions provided by
your health care provider for biohazardous waste.
It is recommended that you carry spare test strip cartridges and
lancets in case of an emergency.
