and short, medium, or long vibrations.

Antiseptics

Products that you can use at the sensor insertion site if you tend to develop infections.

Backlighting

A light inside the receiver that lets you see the display screen in the dark.

Blood Glucose

One of two modes in which the system functions (the other is Continuous Monitoring mode).

Mode

In the Blood Glucose mode, you can perform traditional blood glucose testing manually using

 

a FreeStyle Test Strip and a drop of blood. Although you can use the Blood Glucose mode

 

whenever you wish, its main use is for calibrating the system.

Calibration

The system must be calibrated at approximately 10, 12, 24 and 72 hours after sensor insertion. The

 

system is calibrated using a blood glucose measurement (performed in the Blood Glucose mode

 

using the built-in FreeStyle Blood Glucose Meter). The receiver compares the reading it gets from

 

the blood to the reading the sensor takes from the interstitial fluid. Based on the calibration, the

 

receiver calculates real-time glucose readings.

Calibration BG

Allows you to add a new blood glucose measurement that is used for sensor calibration. Use this

 

feature only under the direction of a Customer Care representative or your healthcare team. Use

 

of this feature will discard all the earlier calibrations. The sensor life will not be reset.

Capillary Blood

Blood from the tiny blood vessels in your body (such as in the tip of your finger or alternate

 

sites) used to measure glucose levels in the Blood Glucose mode. Capillary blood is also used for

 

measuring glucose levels with traditional glucose meters.

CM Status

Lets you view recent error codes related to the Continuous Monitoring mode. These codes appear

 

only when the system is not functioning properly. Use this option only under the direction of a

 

Customer Care representative or your healthcare team.

Contact Points

Conductive points that connect the transmitter to the sensor support mount.
