What’s in the box
Your Wearable home SOS pendant
package contains the following items. Save
your sales receipt and original packaging in
the event warranty service is necessary.
Portable use of SOS pendant
1. Open the lock and insert one end of the
lanyard into the slot on top of the SOS
pendant.
2. Close the lock.
3. Press and adjust the position of the
move button for wearing comfort.
For detailed operations, read the
SOS emergency call section in the Quick
start guide or the online Complete user’s
manual of your telephone system.
• To ensure proper operation for making
emergency calls by using the SOS pendant,
the telephone system must be installed
according to the installation instructions
in your telephone system’s user’s manual.
To verify that the telephone system is
operating properly and can successfully
make emergency calls to the preset
numbers, the telephone system must be
tested immediately after installation, and
periodically thereafter, according to the
setup and operation instructions in your
telephone system’s user’s manual.
• The telephone system cannot make an
emergency call when other equipment
(telephone, answering system, computer
modem, etc.) connected to the same phone
line is in use.
• Do not solely rely on the SOS pendant for
getting help in case of emergency. The
functionality of the SOS emergency call
is dependent on the phone settings and
network availability.

good, follow these guidelines:
• Your SOS pendant has been tested in a

performance of the device, make sure the
battery compartment cover is tightly closed.

not clean it under the tap.

moisture.
