General Information
How to Use Your Button
Firmly press your neck or wrist button to contact an emergency response operator. For at-home systems, you will need to speak into the two-way speaker on the base unit. However, our on the go devices include an integrated two-way speaker, which you can speak directly into.
The button can and should be worn when showering or bathing, but should not be worn in a chlorinated pool.
We recommend you sleep with your wrist button or keep your button close by.
We recommend that you use the provided breakaway lanyard that comes with your Medical Alert system. Do not replace the cord with another lanyard or chain.
