Meet the FreeStyle

Libre 2 System

Check your glucose with a painless,*11-second scan

instead of ﬁngersticks.†Understand how your body

responds to treatment, food, and exercise. See patterns

and trends and customize optional, real-time alarms‡for

lows and highs. Share insights with healthcare providers.

Get the complete picture of your glucose levels, not just

a moment in time.

* Data from this study was collected with the outside US version of FreeStyle Libre 14 day system. FreeStyle Libre 2

has the same features as FreeStyle Libre 14 day system with optional, real-time glucose alarms. Therefore, the study

data is applicable to both products.

†Fingersticks are required if your glucose alarms and readings do not match symptoms or when you see Check Blood

Glucose symbol during the ﬁrst 12 hours.

‡Notiﬁcations will only be received when alarms are turned on and the sensor is within 20 feet of the reading device.

3 Steps to Apply Sensor

Sensors stick better when you wash, clean, and dry your

arm before application.

01 Wash, Clean, and Dry

Select a site on the back of your upper arm that stays ﬂat during

normal activity. Clean skin with non-moisturizing, fragrance-free

soap and water. Use an alcohol wipe to disinfect the skin and

let air dry before proceeding.

02 Prep Applicator

Open sensor by peeling back the lid. Unscrew cap from the

sensor applicator. Line up marks on the sensor applicator.

Press down ﬁrmly and then lift.

03 Apply

Apply the sensor to the back of your upper arm by pressing

ﬁrmly. Listen for the click. Wait for a few seconds and pull back

slowly, leaving the sensor on the skin.

Quick Tip

Make sure to rotate the site to allow skin to fully heal.

Switching arms each time can help.

Pg 8 of 28

The FreeStyle Libre 2 system is designed to stay on for

up to 14 days.

• Secure sensor by pressing it down and running your ﬁnger

along the sensor adhesive

• Apply sensor to dierent sites on the back of the upper arm

each time to avoid irritating your skin

• Avoid placing sensor on moles, scars, stretch marks, and lumps.

Shave hair on arm, if necessary

Tips to Help Keep Your

Sensor in Place

Some people use the following products for extra stickiness

and protection:*

Skin-Prep™ Protective Barrier Wipe

Protective liquid dressing that allows skin to

breathe so tapes and ﬁlms adhere better

Tegaderm I.V.™

A transparent ﬁlm that provides adhesive

strength

Mastisol® Liquid Adhesive

Clear, non-irritating, non-water-soluble liquid

adhesive

Torbot Skin Tac™

Hypoallergenic and latex-free “tacky”

skin barrier

Over-bandage†

Be sure to use only medical-grade adhesive,

bandage, or tape. Apply and remove at the

same time you apply or remove your sensor.

Leave the opening/hole over the center of the

sensor uncovered so it can breathe.

†Over-bandage must be applied at the time of sensor application, the opening/hole in the center of the sensor must not

be covered. Additional medical grade bandages/tape can be applied but do not remove bandages/tape once applied

until sensor is ready for removal.

Steps to Activate Sensor

Follow these steps to be ready to get readings in about

one hour.

How to Scan Your Sensor

Hold your reader within 1.5 inches of your sensor to scan

right through your clothes.†

* Notiﬁcations will only be received when alarms are turned on and the sensor is within 20 feet of the reading device.

†The reader can capture data from the sensor when it is within 1 cm to 4 cm of the sensor.

Scanning Tips

The more you scan, the more you know about your

glucose levels.

Scan Frequently

Remember to scan at least once every 8 hours to avoid gaps

in your daily graph. The more you scan, the more complete

picture of your glucose levels you and your doctor have to help

manage your diabetes.

This screen shows your current

glucose reading and a trend

arrow. With trend arrows, you can

monitor the direction your glucose

is heading.

TIP: Trend arrows may not always

appear (see Check Glucose

Symbol below).

Other times when you need to

do a blood glucose test:

• If you think your glucose

readings are not correct

• If your glucose readings do

not match how you feel

• If the reading does not include

a current glucose number

Current reading What trend arrows mean:

110 Glucose is rising quickly

(more than 2 mg/dL per minute)

110 Glucose is rising

(between 1 and 2 mg/dL per minute)

110 Glucose is changing slowly

(less than 1 mg/dL per minute)

110 Glucose is falling

(between 1 and 2 mg/dL per minute)

110 Glucose is falling quickly

(more than 2 mg/dL per minute)

How to Interpret

Trend Arrows

You have probably noticed the trend arrow next your

current glucose reading. Sometimes it points up,

sometimes sideways, and sometimes down. But what

does it mean? And how can it help you manage your

glucose levels?

Use Alarms*for

Extra Safety

The FreeStyle Libre 2 system has optional, real-time alarms*

to help keep you safe, even at night. Alarms*are on by

default and can be customized. Alarms feature preset

tones, a vibration option, and adjustable volume. To receive

alarms, your reader should be turned on, within 20 feet of

you, and unobstructed at all times. If your reader is out of

range of your sensor, you may not receive glucose alarms.

* Notiﬁcations will only be received when alarms are turned on and the sensor is within 20 feet of the reading device.

Alarm*

Get an alarm from the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader when your

glucose is too low or too high. You also receive an alarm when

the reader has lost contact with the sensor for more than 20

minutes.*

Scan

Scan your FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor to see your glucose reading,

trend arrow, and 8-hour history.

Act

Use your results to make treatment decisions.

Alarms*are easy†to set based on your target glucose goals.

* Notiﬁcations will only be received when alarms are turned on and the sensor is within 20 feet of the reading device.

†Data from this study was collected with the outside US version of FreeStyle Libre 14 day system. FreeStyle Libre 2 has

Set Target Range

Your Target Glucose Range goals can be entirely speciﬁc

to you and may change over time.

Target Glucose Range is pre-set to 70 to 180 mg/dL on the

FreeStyle Libre 2 reader. To set your target glucose range, go

to the Settings Menu and scroll to Report Settings. From there,

you can select your target glucose range.

Learn From Your Data

Access reports on the FreeStyle Libre 2 reader.

Time in Range Time in Range (TIR) is the percentage of time you

spend within the target glucose range set by your doctor. The

standard target range falls between 70 mg/dL and 180 mg/dL.1

Time in Range lets you see when you are above, in, and below

your target glucose range.

Your A1c value indicates your average glucose levels*over the

past three months. It’s helpful to see how you’ve been managing

your diabetes. But even if you hit your A1c goal, you might miss
