Setting Alarms

There are 7 alarms you can set to remind you when to test
your glucose levels.
When alarms are activated:
[1] If an alarm is set and the AgaMatrix Jazz Meter is deacti-
vated, the alarm will activate the meter. "AL1" thru "AL7" (de-
pending which alarm is set) is displayed. The display backlight
flashes, and the meter will beep repeatedly for 15 seconds.
[2] You can turn the alarm OFF by pressing any button.
[3] The alarms will not appear during menu and test modes.
If an alarm is set to sound or flash while using these modes,
it will alarm after the meter is deactivated.
CAUTION: Follow your healthcare professional's recom-
mendations on when and how often to test your glucose.
