Accessing Your Data
You can access your data on the Livongo meter by tapping See More on the home screen data
card.
Charging the Livongo Meter
Your Livongo meter is powered by a rechargeable battery. You’ll receive a notication on the
meter when your battery level is low. To charge it, plug the charger cord with power adapter
attached into the port on the left side of the meter. The meter will show the progress on the
screen. Please note that you won’t be able to perform a blood sugar check while it’s charging. Do
not plug in your charging cord while performing a blood sugar check.
Please wait for 30 minutes after charging the Livongo meter to check your
blood sugar.
The service life of the battery depends on the service time and frequency. It can generally be
charged and discharged at least 400 times.
Use only the Livongo-supplied AC adapter and USB cable to charge the Livongo meter. Avoid
charging your meter in extreme high or low temperatures.
Power On / Power Off / Sleep Mode
• To power on your Livongo meter when it is completely off, press and hold the power button for
2 seconds.
• To conserve battery, your Livongo meter will go to sleep automatically after a period of
inactivity. You can also put the meter to sleep by tapping the power button.
• To completely power off your Livongo meter for extended periods of non-use or storage, press
and hold the power button for 2 seconds and then select Power Off on the screen.
To ensure the best experience possible, we recommend keeping your Livongo meter in sleep
mode instead of completely powered down during normal usage periods. In sleep mode, your

BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM
PRINCIPLE AND INTENDED USE
The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is comprised of the Livongo Blood Glucose
Meter and Livongo Blood Glucose Test Strips. The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is
intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary whole blood
from the ngertips. The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for self-testing
by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitoring the effectiveness of diabetes control
programs. The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is intended for single-patient use and
should not be shared. The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is for in vitro diagnostic use.
The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring System is not intended for the diagnosis of or screening
for diabetes, nor intended for use on neonates.
The Livongo Blood Glucose Monitoring Systems use electrochemical methodologies that use
a reagent system that includes glucose dehydrogenase (FAD-GDH) and a mediator that reacts
with the glucose in the whole blood sample obtained from the ngertip, forearm, and/or palm to
produce an electrical current signal. This current is measured using an amperometric detection
method. The meter then calculates and displays the blood glucose concentration reading,
calibrated to plasma reference.

PRINCIPLE AND INTENDED USE
The Livongo blood glucose test strips are used with the Livongo meter in the quantitative
measurement of glucose in fresh whole capillary blood from the ngertip. The Livongo meter
is intended for use by people with diabetes at home as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of a
diabetes control program and should not be used for the diagnosis of/or screening for diabetes
mellitus or for neonatal use. The blood glucose test strips are thin strips. The strips have a chemical
reagent system. They work with the Livongo meter to measure the glucose level in whole blood.
Blood is applied to the end tip of the test strip. The blood is then absorbed into the reaction cell. This
is where the reaction takes place. A transient electrical current is formed during the reaction and
detected by the meter. The amount of glucose is then calculated based on this current. The result
is shown on the meter display. The meters are calibrated to display plasma equivalent results. The
system is used to monitor how well a diabetes control program works. The blood glucose test strips
can be used only outside the body. They are used by persons with diabetes for self-testing purposes.

E-5 E-6
Instructions for Use Instructions for Use

BLOOD GLUCOSE TEST STRIPS
Instructions for Use
1. Open the cap of the test strip vial and take out a test strip. Replace the cap to protect the other
test strips.
2. Run the test following the instructions on page 7.
3. The blood glucose test result will be shown on the meter display. This result should fall within
the target range recommended by your doctor. If your blood glucose test results are higher or
lower, ask your doctor what to do. Always consult your doctor before changing your treatment
plan.
Note: The system reads glucose in whole blood within the range of 40–600 mg/dL. If a result is
below 40 mg/dL, the meter will display “Severely Low.” If a result is above 600 mg/dL, the meter
will display “Severely High.”
Range of Expected Values
