Can the beeping be disabled but still allow for the light to gradually turn on at an alarmed time?

Honestly the light always wakes me up before the actual alarm goes off, it's a gradual light. I use the bird noise which is less alarming than beeping but as others have said all you have to do is turn down the volume.

Sort of. There is a trick I use to do just that. I have the unit alarm using the radio. If you turn the station to an unused frequency and minimize the volume the white noise produced is so low you will never hear it.

I personally use the bird sounds as the audio alarm but from what I can tell the best way to accomplish what you want is to turn the alarm volume down all the way. Then the light alarm will still do it's thing but the audio alarm will be very quiet/silent.

It beeps a bit, not that loud ( not as loud as the microwave for example ) I don't think you can turn it off or make it louder.

It does have a beeping or to be option. It goes off for quite awhile...and if you do not acknowledge it (press the confirm button), it will go off again a few minutes later.

No. I beeps at the end of the time only. BTW, I discovered that it also can act as a stopwatch (i.e., counting up). I don't think there's any alarm in that mode, although I haven't let it go to 99+ minutes to see. (grin)

There is a very loud, high pitched beeping when the set time is reached. You won't miss it, I believe you can also turn it off if you need.

When it is functioning correctly, it simply beeps when time is up. Optionally, one can set the unit to be silent and/or optionally blink the user lights when time is up. Warning: this unit uses a cheap wiring inside which leads to the unit eventually resetting itself after moderate use. I have two of them, and they both have the same problem, so I don't recommend it.

I don't think you can turn them off altogether, but after the initial short tones that let you know it's done, it doesn't beep again.

Not that I can figure out. Sometimes when I push the button lightly, it doesn't beep, but I don't think that's a "feature"

The answer is yes -- I have discovered that when the "beep" feature is properly set, the system will "beep" when the sleep timer function starts - - and when it starts, the first sleep timer function to show will be the last timer function that was used -- so as long as you want the same timer function that was used the last time, the instant you hear the "beep" you will release the "on/off" button and you will have the sleep timer setting that you want - - sight unseen.

The only way I have got the alarm function to stop was to hit mute but I imagine it would eventually stop like the alert beeping function does

Yes. You can eliminate ALL beeps and squawks. I can't recite them from memory, but you need to start from your initial turn on for each selection.

Good question; but, unfortunately no. It keeps beeping but stops at that. You have to turn off the alarm. Then the face shows original set time and you have to clear that. Sorry.

I checked the manual and nothing there about beep adjustment or disabling; probably some consumer safety issues with that. The beep is not very intrusive, less than other models we have had.

No. There are two settings, beep and alarm. Beep just beeps while the door is open and turns off when closed. Alarm is a jarring, loud ALARM that goes off until you turn it off. It wakes me out of a sound sleep.

The speaker does have a loud tone when it comes on, and then the blue light comes on, but I'm not sure if the sound can be disabled.

I don't think so. It's just the right sound for me. and it will only beep anyways when you turn on or off, so it's not a big deal I guess. Hope this helps.

Yes. On the left side there is a slider 3way switch: OFF, LOW and HI (sensitivity). When the unit alarms, it shuts itself off in about a minute however. I always set mine on HI sensitivity and it works just fine.
