Beep tones at power-on

When Acoustic Mode is set to on, you hear a long beep ( — ) when you
turn on the meter.
This is irrespective of which button you use to turn the meter on:
the Test button in order to perform a test (see Chapter 4.3.1)
the S button in order to change settings (see Chapter 3)
the M button in order to retrieve results from memory (see Chap-
ter 5)
the M and S button in order to send results (see Chapter 5.4)
If you press the Test button or M button to turn the meter on, you first
hear the long power-on beep followed by 6 further beeps spaced as
1 – 2 – 3 ( – – – – – – ).

Following the power-on beep and the 1 – 2 – 3 sequence of beeps, you
will hear the following while you test:
a single beep when the meter is ready to test so you can let the test
strip draw up blood or control solution,
a single beep when the test strip has drawn up sufficient blood or
control solution and the test is starting,
several beeps each time the meter displays an error message (see
Chapter 6.5).
6.3
In Acoustic Mode, whenever your meter displays a result following a
blood glucose test, it also announces the result as a series of beeps. The
result is not treated as an entity, but is broken down into individual dig-
its.
Examples:
The result 7.6 mmol/L is announced as 0 – 7 – decimal point – 6.
The result 138 mg/dL is announced as 1 – 3 – 8.
