Cellular Communications
Important information regarding your console communications.
Cellular communications are affected by a number of factors outside the control of Life
Alert and may be impaired or blocked by building construction style, building materials,
atmospheric conditions (i.e. weather), distance from transmitter to receiver, surrounding
terrain, battery levels, signal strength, cellular network traffic, cellular tower condition and
interference from other cellular devices. You also understand that cellular based solutions
rely on third party services from wireless service providers such as, AT&T and T-Mobile that
are not controlled by Life Alert or its representatives. You acknowledge that even if cellular
solutions work well at the time of rst test, activation or installation, you are responsible
for monitoring signal strength, power and service quality on an on-going basis. Life Alert
is not responsible for maintaining or monitoring the networks used for communication and
can only provide timely and accurate response if all equipment and networks are working
correctly and providing adequate signal strength. You must test your equipment and any
other cellular related equipment on a regular basis to identify any deterioration of network
service and signal strength. You will notify us in writing of any changes to your information
you provided us, or a change to your equipment. You also acknowledge and understand that
there may be additional issues related to sending information over cellular networks to our
Monitoring Center beyond what is mentioned here. You further understand that technology
used for cellular communications can fail at any time and you release Life Alert, its staff,
employees, owners, shareholders, officers, contractors, representatives and vendors from
any and all liability related to the transmission of emergency signals or communications over
cellular networks.
