What you need to understand in the Indications For Use: You can use the FreeStyle Libre 2 System if you’re 4 or older. IMPORTANT: • After you scan the Sensor, consider all the information on your screen before deciding what to do or what treatment decision to make. • Don’t take a correction dose within 2 hours of your meal dose. This may result in “insulin stacking” and low glucose. WARNING: The System can replace blood glucose testing except in the below situations.

Cautions and Limitations: Below are important cautions and limitations to keep in mind so you can use the System safely. They are grouped into categories for easy reference. What to know about Glucose Alarms: • For you to receive alarms, they must be on and your Reader should be within 20 feet of you at all times. The transmission range is 20 feet unobstructed. If you are out of range, you may not receive glucose alarms.

• • • • • another Sensor readily available, you must use an alternate method to measure your glucose levels and inform your treatment decisions. The System is designed to detect certain conditions which may occur where the Sensor is not working as intended and shut it off, telling you to replace your Sensor. This may occur if the Sensor gets knocked off from the skin or if the System detects that the Sensor may not be performing as intended.
PAGE 6
• Do NOT use if the Reader appears to be damaged due to risk of electric shock and/or no results. What to know before you Apply the Sensor: • The Sensor Pack and Sensor Applicator are packaged as a set (separately from the Reader) and have the same Sensor code. Check that the Sensor codes match before using your Sensor Pack and Sensor Applicator. Do not use Sensor Packs and Sensor Applicators with different Sensor codes together as this will result in incorrect glucose readings.
PAGE 7
When to remove the Sensor: • If the Sensor is becoming loose or if the Sensor tip is coming out of your skin, you may get no readings or unreliable readings, which may not match how you feel. Check to make sure your Sensor has not come loose. If it has come loose, remove it, apply a new one, and contact Customer Service. • If you believe your glucose readings are not correct or are inconsistent with how you feel, perform a blood glucose test on your finger to confirm your glucose.
