Acoustic Mode
Acoustic Mode is intended for persons who are visually impaired. When
Acoustic Mode is turned on, the meter guides the user through the blood
glucose test using beep tones; it also outputs the result as a series of
beeps. For more information see Chapter 6.
Visually impaired persons need a sighted person to instruct them
in the use of the meter and to assist them with all aspects of its
operation. Visually impaired persons must not test their blood
glucose without assistance from a sighted person.
1.4 Display illustrations
Throughout this User’s Manual you will see examples of what the dis-
play looks like. Any elements that are shown surrounded by a halo in
these examples flash in the display.
Example:
You have turned on the meter to perform a blood glucose test. In the
display you see the time and date plus the test strip symbol and the
drop symbol. The test strip symbol and drop symbol are flashing.
The time, date and blood glucose results shown in the display illustra-
tions are intended only as examples. The numbers will not necessarily
be the same as those shown by your own meter. The meter that is used
for illustration in this manual displays blood glucose results in mmol/L
(see Chapter 2.2) and has been set to 24-hour format (see Chapter 3.6).
Your meter, on the other hand, may display the time in 12-hour format.
