NOTE:

EMERGENCY CALLING FROM BASE CONSOLE
Press red 911 button on Base Console to speak
to Emergency Operator, hands-free via Base
Console, within a 10 to 15 foot radius.
When the Emergency Operator answers, you are connected
in an instant, for a live, two-way conversation. Speak
clearly and slowly and follow the Emergency Operator’s
instructions carefully.
Since the Base Console is plugged into an electrical outlet,
talk time is not limited based on battery performance –
UNLESS you are experiencing a power outage and system is
operating on back-up batteries.
PRIORITY HELP CALLS FROM BASE OR WATCH
When the situation calls for help
from a neighbor or family
member, rather than a 911
Emergency Operator, your system automatically
dials your pre-programmed Priority Help contact (in the

the Priority Help button on either your SilverCare Watch or
Base Console. This permits a clear, two-way conversation,
to receive the assistance you need. When a live person is
reached with auto-dial feature, a prerecorded outgoing
message (OGM) is sent, telling recipient they are receiving
an important call from you. They will be instructed to press
