Using your Personal
Security Communicator

Using the memory/
speed dial numbers (M1 & M2)

Your Personal Security Communicator has two
preset speed dial numbers for non-emergency
calls. Press either of these buttons to begin a call,
hold down to cancel. The top green LED will light
up during a call.

SOS functionality

Activating the SOS button will
immediately start an emergency
call through to up to 6 nominated
numbers. It will try each contact
3 times if no answer, before
moving on to the next contact.
The receiver will be prompted
to accept the emergency call
by a voice recording. If you have
chosen professional monitoring,
your device will immediately dial
our 24/7 call centre, and they will
assist you. The top green LED
will light up during the call.

Press and hold the ON/OFF button

will flash slowly.

Turning the device off

Press and hold the ON/OFF button
for 2-3 seconds and release, you
will hear a chime, and the device
will vibrate as it switches off.
