I am wondering about the beep noise, does it beep when you set the controls, or just when done? Can you make the noise lower??

It beeps when you're pushing the buttons to set it, when it gets to the temperature set and then when it shuts off. You can not adjust to sound level but I don't find it to be too loud. My microwave is louder.

Yes, it beeps when you set each setting.For example, once you press a preset button like 'Toast', 'Bake' etc..., then on heat setting and then on time setting.You can rotate the knob as much as you want back and forth but when you press it to set, it beeps once.Also, it beeps few times when pre-heat is done, few minutes or a minute before cooking is done and then when it's done.And, no you cannot change noise volume.Also, it's not noise. Why anyone would consider a beep from oven or microwave NOISE is over my head.It's NOT noise but a needed feature.But, it's not an issue so don't make it a big deal like bunch of others do here.I actually like it since it tells me my settings are being set.

It beeps when you plug it in, it beeps when you set it and it beeps when it's done! To my knowledge you cannot adjust the sound level...I too wish you could because the beep is not a pleasant ding, but our family has gotten used to it, so now I don't mind.

Yes, it beeps whenever you set controls, so it does beep a lot and the beep is loud. I don't think there's any way to disable the beep or to lower the volume.

IMPORTANT: For those out there that do not like a loud beep. You can turn it off. It's in the manual. At the same time push and hold the "Toast" & "Bagel" buttons for 5 seconds. This will deactivate the beeping. Unfortunately, it now does not beep at the end of a cooking cycle either. It does beep a lot, but not a huge deal for us. However, if you do have a need for silence, it is easy to turn the beeping off. It's just as easy to turn it back on - hold the toast and bagel buttons again for 5 seconds and it's beeping again. Hope this helps someone out there!

Yes, it does beep when you set controls, and no you cannot change the volume of the beep unfortunately, but it is still a good toaster oven, but I just overlook that part of it.

There's a short beep when you set the controls and a long one when it is done. I don't think there is a volume control - haven't needed one.

It beeps when you push the buttons and when it's preheated and when it's done. I don't know how you would make the noise lower or frankly why it's such a big deal. It's certainly not a deal breaker for me. I don't mind because it beeps as an alert. You will hear it and isn't that the point? :)

I am not aware of any adjustment for the sound level. On the other hand, I didn't find it to be very loud; I actually missed it a couple of times when I needed to add ingredients and got busy in other parts of the house. It only beeps a couple of times anyway.

I don't know of a way, but I agree that it's not very loud. I suggest you set another timer with a louder beep as a backup!

No. It doesn't beep when it turns on or off. Just saw someone else's answer. If it does beep it isn't very loud...I have never heard it.

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.

My experience is that it only beeps when time is up. And if you want to shut the lights off, it shuts all sound off entirely too. That said, I love this clock. Durable with a clear display.

I don't consider the beep terribly loud, and no, there are no "reminder beeps". It beeps when it's done. When using the defrost cycle, it beeps when it's halfway done and then again when it's done.

Mine beeps once when I turn it on. Suggest you contact Customer Service of the manufacturer. Curious!

Yes it does beep when you enter your code but not when it opens, or if you don't want to enter a code, there are a pair of keys that comes with so that you can open without the use of a code. There's no setting on how to silence the beeping, instructions/manual is short and simple on how to set up your code. Hopefully this helps :-)

The deck and motor are very quiet, but there is an audible beep when you interact with the console, or if it shuts itself down due to a timeout (if you get off, etc.). I haven't investigated to see if there's a way to adjust the beep volume or silence it.

I have to respectfully disagree with the comment from NM Norma. Maybe she has an older or different version of this timer. I have a recent version, approximately one month old, and it beeps non-stop until I hit the reset button. I find this to be a very helpful feature. It's also pretty loud, but not TOO loud. I'm not sure if it would be loud enough to be heard from upstairs, especially if there are a lot of other noises in the house, but the great thing is that it has a belt clip so you can simply take it with you wherever you go. :)

The question was about the beeping when powering it on or off, not when you loose power. My unit beeps too when powering it on or off. However, the beeps that mine makes are not loud. Perhaps I have an older or newer model. I have not seen anything in the settings that allow the beep volume to be changed.

No and it is annoying that the beep is so low. If I'm not in the kitchen, I set a portable timer.

Yes, there are 2 beep settings - High beep and Low beep. The high is quite loud and has no problem being heard in a louder environment and the low is better for a gym setting if you don't want others to hear it!

Yes, it does beep and also has a red blinking light. You also can change the setting to silent and just have the blinking light.

The beeping is easily heard ("clock radio volume" loud). I bought it to not hear the ticking sound of my old-fashioned timer. Note, there is no volume control. I take the one AAA battery out when not in use to "save" on battery since always "on."

i hear this "beeping" as i describe it, as well, and have found others on youtube that experience this as well with this camera, it is quite annoying, although its not nearly as loud as you make it seem.. most people dont notice it even, but once you do it is quite annoying... i wondered if i got a defective unit but after finding many others that also have this it seems to be just how the camera is , i still have 20 some days to return it and i probably will because of this, oh well.
