1 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 testing 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 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 separate manual are descriptions of the operation of the meter and finger pricker that have been specially adapted to help sighted persons instruct visually impaired persons in the functions of the meter or supervise its use. 1.4 About this Reference Manual Please read this manual carefully and completely before testing blood glucose for the first time.
