Do you need help? * The AutoAlert Help Button provides an added layer of protection by placing a Help Call if a fall is detected and you can’t push the button. Not all falls can be detected. If you fall and need help, press your Help Button. Setting up your Lifeline Service Before you can use your system, your communicator must be properly set up, and the coverage range of your Help Button must be determined for your Lifeline Service. Please see the Quick Setup Guide for instructions on how to set up your system and test the coverage range of your Help Button. If you have any questions, please contact Philips Lifeline or your representative. Responders and People to Notify What is a “Responder”? As a Lifeline subscriber, you should have designated people who have agreed to be “Responders.” These are people whom Lifeline should call in an emergency, when appropriate. Examples include: neighbors, friends, relatives, your current nursing aide, etc. Choosing a Responder It is best to choose a Responder who: • Has a key to your home or knows where one is located (perhaps in a key lockbox) • Could come to help you at different times of the day or night • Lives or works within 10 minutes of where you live • Has a phone, preferably a cell phone • Ideally has a driver’s license and access to a vehicle Information Lifeline needs about Responders Please ensure that Lifeline has the following information about each person acting as a Responder: • Name • Phone numbers – home, work and cell phone. • Whether or not the Responder has a key to your home. It’s very important that you keep your Responders and their contact information up to date. Remember to contact Lifeline if one of your Responders is no longer able to assist you or if they get a new telephone number. Please contact Lifeline for any questions about selecting or being a Responder. Who are “People to Notify”? If you call for help, Lifeline will contact the “People to Notify” to let them know that you received assistance once we receive confirmation. “People to Notify” will not be contacted to help you, unless they are also on your list of “Responders.” Calling for help 1. Press the Help Button that you wear or the gray Help Button on the top of your Home Communicator. You can press either button, but you do not need to press both. The Home Communicator will beep and dial the Lifeline Response Center. Note: The Response Center is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. A trained Personal Response Associate is always available to assist you. Help call in progress. Please wait. Hello, Mrs. Smith. Do you need help? 2. The Home Communicator calls the Response Center. When it dials the Response Center, the Home Communicator will repeatedly say: “Your Help Call is in progress; please wait.” Once it connects with the Response Center, it will say: “Your call has been connected; Lifeline will be right with you.” 3. The Response Center will answer the call. A Response Associate will speak to you through the Home Communicator’s built-in speaker and hear you through the Home Communicator’s highly sensitive microphone. He/she will ask if you need help. If you do not need help, just tell the Response Associate that help is not needed. Note: If you cannot speak or be heard, the Response Associate will try calling you back. If you cannot answer or if the Response Associate cannot hear you, Lifeline will contact your Responder or emergency services. 4. The Response Center will assess the situation. If help is needed, our response associate will contact your list of Responders (i.e., a caregiver, neighbor, loved one) or emergency services in accordance with your request. 5. Once your Responder or the emergency service arrives, they should press your Help Button to let Lifeline know that help has arrived. The Response Associate will contact the household to confirm that you received the help that you needed. 6. Once Lifeline confirms that you have been assisted, a Response Associate will contact the “People to Notify” you’ve designated, letting them know you needed and received help. Accidental help calls: If you accidentally press your Help Button, a Response Associate will respond to your call and ask if you need help. Just tell them that it was pressed accidentally and that you do not need assistance. Don’t be concerned that you are bothering Lifeline; we just want to be sure that you are all right. Signal range CAUTION Please see the Quick Setup Guide included in the box for instructions on how to set up your system and test the range of your Help Button. The Home Communicator must be properly set up, and the coverage range of the Help Button must be tested prior to use. The Help Button is a radio frequency (RF) device that transmits a signal to a compatible Lifeline Home Communicator. Your Help Button and Home Communicator provide coverage inside your home and may provide coverage in the area immediately outside (in the yard, etc.). If you live in an apartment building or condominium, you may have coverage in areas immediately outside your apartment (e.g., the hallway, stairway, or another floor of the building). A Signal Range Test is required to determine which areas are covered. Be sure to thoroughly test the coverage range of the system in all areas of your home. The signal range may be affected by environmental factors, including building materials, large masses covering the AutoAlert Help Button (e.g. a person falling on top of it) and submersion in liquid. A Signal Range Test will determine your coverage range, which is the distance you can move away from your Home Communicator and still call for help. If you press your Help Button outside of your apartment, but still in range of the Home Communicator, help will be sent to the location of the Home Communicator (i.e., your apartment). Signal Range Test You should conduct a Signal Range Test during initial installation and, if you move your Home Communicator to a different location in your home. 1. Make sure that your Home Communicator is ON and that you have your Help Button in hand. 2. PRESS and HOLD DOWN the Message button. The Home Communicator will beep and announce: “Continue to hold the Message button for AutoLearn. When you are ready for Range Test, please release the Message button.” 3. Release the Message button. The Home Communicator will announce: “Please press the flashing orange Message button after you have completed the range test. Begin Signal Range Test.” 4. Press your Help Button. The Home Communicator will beep and the light on your Help Button will flash green to indicate that the Home Communicator has received the signal. 5. Move to other parts of your home and press your Help Button again. Listen for the beep and check to see if the green light is flashing. 6. Once you have tested different locations in your home and immediately outside your home, return to the Home Communicator and press the flashing orange Message button. 10 Battery information All Philips Lifeline equipment contains batteries that can only be replaced by Philips Lifeline in the factory. The equipment will automatically send a signal to Lifeline when the battery needs to be replaced. Philips Lifeline or your representative will contact you directly to make arrangements for a replacement. Equipment service Every Home Communicator and Help Button is manufactured to high quality standards. Philips Lifeline equipment can only be factory-serviced by Philips Lifeline. If you need service or a repair, please contact Philips Lifeline or your representative. Contact Lifeline or their representative • If you would like to transfer your service to a new or second home. • If your Responder or People to Notify list needs to be updated. It is important that your list is up to date with the correct people and telephone numbers. • If someone else in your home needs to use the Lifeline Service. More than one person living in the same household can have the service. 11 HomeSafe Wireless Communicator (7000C) Description Help button Microphone • Used to talk to Lifeline • Press to send a Help Call to the Response Center • Flashes red while a Help Call is connecting • Steady red when a Help Call is connected Message button • Used during the setup process • When the button is flashing orange, press to hear a status message Green status light • Steady green when the Communicator is ON • Flashes green when the communicator is running on battery (AC power loss) 12 Volume control • Controls the volume of the speaker on the Communicator Signal strength • Indicates the strength of the wireless signal* Power switch • Used to turn the Communicator ON or OFF. The power switch must be ON at all times for your Lifeline service to work. * Signal strength may vary. 13 Safety information The Wireless Communicator (7000C) uses a wireless network* to communicate with the Lifeline Response Center. 1. The strength of the wireless signal may be stronger in some areas of your home than others. When you set up our Home Communicator, look at the signal strength indicator on the back of the Home Communicator. The number of green bars that are glowing indicate signal strength, the more bars you see, the stronger the signal. Place your Home Communicator in a location where you spend the majority of your time, and the signal strength indicator shows two or more bars. 2. If the wireless network experiences an outage or the Home Communicator loses its signal, the Message button on top of the Home Communicator will flash and it will not be able to send a Help Call to Lifeline. If you press your Button and the wireless network is not available, you will hear a message saying: “Your call cannot be connected. There is no signal strength. Move your Home Communicator to a different location.” Try moving the Home Communicator to a different location in your home. Once the signal is restored, you will hear a message saying: “Connection has been restored.” Your Help Call will then be dialed. Help call in progress. Please wait. 3. The Home Communicator must be placed in an indoor living area. Please keep in mind that direct sunlight may make it difficult to see the status lights. * The HomeSafe Wireless Communicator uses the AT&T wireless network. 14 4. Make sure that you do not plug your Home Communicator into a power outlet that is controlled by a switch because someone could accidentally turn off the switch and shut off the power to your Home Communicator. 5. Do not place anything on top of the Home Communicator. The Help Button and the Message button must always be visible and accessible. 6. The Home Communicator contains a speaker and microphone. Take care not to block these, since doing so will make it difficult for you to communicate with Lifeline. 7. Make sure your Home Communicator is away from any clutter or any object that might block its ability to receive a signal from the Help Button. The Home Communicator should not be placed on or near your refrigerator or any type of metal cabinet or bookcase, since this may limit the overall range of the System. 8. To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not place the Home Communicator in or near water or other liquids. 9. Do not abuse the cords. Never carry the Home Communicator by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from a power outlet. Instead, grasp the plug and pull to disconnect. 15 Cleaning Keep the Home Communicator free of dust by wiping it with a soft cotton cloth. If additional cleaning is required, follow the steps below: 1. Move the power switch on the back of the Home Communicator to the OFF position and unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Note: You cannot call for help while the Home Communicator is off. Accordingly, you may wish to have a family member or caregiver present while you are cleaning your Home Communicator. 2. Slightly dampen a soft cloth with a mild soap and water and gently wipe the surfaces clean. Do not use detergent or abrasive cleaners on your Home Communicator. 3. Reconnect the power cord to the power outlet. Move the power switch on the back of the Home Communicator to the ON position. 4. Test your system by pressing your Help Button. Tell the Response Associate that you are just testing your equipment after cleaning it. Caution: Do not spray water or cleaners directly on your Home Communicator. Excessive moisture could get inside the Home Communicator and cause damage. Backup battery Your Home Communicator uses a factory-installed battery for back-up. If you lose power, the back-up battery begins to work automatically. 16 HomeSafe Help Buttons – General Information Warnings and Cautions Warnings are: Potentially hazardous situations which could result in injury, death, or other serious adverse reactions if these instructions 8235 8235 are not followed.

And if these instructions are not followed, may result in minor or moderate injury. CAUTION In certain situations, the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button may not detect a fall. A gradual slide from a seated position – such as from a wheelchair – may not register as a fall and would not be detected. If you fall and need help, always press the Help Button if you are able to. The vent located on the back of the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button is part of the fall detection sensor system and needs to remain clear of obstructions (e.g., lint or food products). A continuous flow of water (e.g., a shower) hitting the vent directly may also temporarily obstruct the vent. However, your HomeSafe AutoAlert Button is waterproof and should be worn at all times – even when bathing or showering. The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button may interfere with certain medical equipment, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray machine as well as metal detectors. It may also interfere with aircraft communications, so do not take the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button aboard an airplane. 25 To conserve battery power for Help Calls, the sensors that are used to detect falls will be disabled when there are approximately 7 days of battery life remaining. During this time, the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button will not detect falls. But, it will continue to function as a Help Button, which you can press if you need help. See battery information section for more on battery life and replacements. The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button may not detect every fall In certain situations, the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button may not detect a fall. Some movements may not register as a fall and would not be detected. Examples include, but are not limited to: • A gradual slide such as from a seated position • Lowering oneself slowing to the ground (to brace the impact of a fall) • A fall from a height of less than 20 inches (0.5 meters) Certain conditions can affect the ability of the HomeSafe AutoAlert Button to detect a fall: • If you live at an altitude above 6,600 feet (2000 meters) • If you are less than 4 feet 6 inches in height (1.4 meters) • If you weigh less than 88 pounds (40 kilograms) However, the ability to send a Help Call by pressing the button is not affected by such conditions. 26 Features • The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button allows you to summon assistance anytime, day or night. When you press your Help Button, it transmits a signal to your Home Communicator. The Home Communicator then calls the Lifeline Response Center for you. You must be in the range of the Home Communicator for your Help Call to be placed. • The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button provides an added layer of protection by automatically calling for help if it detects you have fallen. The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button does not detect 100% of falls. If you are able, you should always press your Button when you need help.

Pushing the Help Button generates the Help Call immediately. False “fall detected” alarms may occasionally occur • While the AutoAlert Help Button is designed to have very few false alarms, it might occasionally trigger a fall detected alarm when there was not a fall (i.e., a false alarm). • If this occurs, please simply tell the Response Associate that it was a false alarm. • Occasional false alarms do not indicate that the AutoAlert Help Button is malfunctioning. Battery The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button has a non-rechargeable battery that can only be replaced at the factory. The HomeSafe AutoAlert Button will send a low battery signal to Lifeline when there are approximately 30 days of battery life remaining.

UL1635 and UL1637 Compliance The maximum separation (range) of the equipment, under test conditions and for comparative purposes only, is 650 feet. This range may be significantly reduced when the equipment is installed in a typical home. A clear, plastic power supply retaining strip is provided in the packaging with this system. To prevent the power supply from accidentally pulling out of the AC wall outlet under force, plug the power supply into the outlet you select to power your system, peel the release liner from the adhesive panels on the strip and affix it across the back of the power supply, adhering the 2 adhesive panels to the wall on each side of the power supply. Be sure that the adhesion area is devoid of any dirt, oil or grease that would prevent the adhesive from sticking properly. 34 35 Philips Lifeline 111 Lawrence Street Framingham, MA 01702-8156 Tel: 1-800-451-0525 www.lifelinesystems.com Philips Lifeline Canada 95 Barber Greene Road, Suite 105 Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3C 3E9 Tel: 1-800-387-8120 www.lifeline.ca © 2013.
