User`s manual

Introduction

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 test

ing process using beep tones; it also outputs the result as a series of

beeps.

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.

A separate manual, the User’s Manual for Acoustic Mode, describes

Acoustic Mode and operation of the Accu-Chek Compact Plus meter in

Acoustic Mode. It contains information on beep tones, how and when

the meter uses them, and what they mean. Also contained in the sepa

rate User’s Manual are descriptions of the operation of the meter and

lancing device that have been specially adapted to help sighted persons

instruct visually impaired persons in the functions of the meter or super-

vise its use.

The User’s Manual for Acoustic Mode is available in written and spoken

form. Both versions are available through your local customer support

and service centre. Details are given at the end of this User’s Manual.
