How do Accu-Chek test reminders work?

You can set up to 4 general test Reminders per day to remind you to test. A series of beeps sound and a bell is displayed for reminders set in the meter.

About Guide Me reminders:

  • Turn off by inserting a test strip or pressing any button.
  • Are postponed until the next test reminder if a test was performed within 15 minutes of a test reminder.
  • Do not appear/beep if the meter is on at the test reminder time (including when the meter is connected to a USB cable).
  • Do not appear/beep if the meter is connected and communicating to a Continua Certified® manager.
  • Do not beep if the meter beeper is set to off.
  • Do not appear/beep if the batteries need to be replaced.


About pre-set reminders:

  1. Reminder times are pre-set in the meter for 8:00 am, 12:00 pm, 6:00 pm, and 10:00 pm. You may change reminder times by following the instructions below.
  2. If a general test Reminder is set for the same time as a Post Meal reminder, the Post Meal reminder will appear/beep instead of the general Reminder.
