Attendant Call Chime - #1499
USER’S GUIDE

Alerts Attendants Immediately!
This call chime is easy-to-use and helpful, too! The user simply
presses a button when assistance is needed and the receiver sounds up
to 40 feet away. The call button is also adapted for use with a
capability switch. Size: 4" x 4" x 1". Requires 2 AA and 1 6-V
Batteries.
Operation:
1. The Attendant call chime requires 2 AA and 1- 6 Volt battery. Use
alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer brand). Do not
use rechargeable batteries or any other type of batteries because
they supply lower voltage and the unit will not perform properly.
Never mix old and new batteries together or different brands or
types together.
2. To install the 6-V battery in the small rectangular transmitter, you
must first carefully slide off the battery cover. Once the cover is
off install the battery paying close attention to proper (+) and (-)
polarity. Replace cover. For replacement battery use a GP super
alkaline No.476A 6V or equivalent.
3. To install the two AA batteries in the Chiming receiver you must
first remove the battery cover by sliding it off. Next install the two
AA batteries paying close attention to proper (+) and (-) polarity,
and replace cover.
4. Connect any capability switch, via the 1/8" cord jack on the
transmitter. Make sure your connection between the two is flush,
with no gaps. If it is necessary for you to use an adapter for
switches with the larger 1/4" plug, make sure that you use a
MONO adapter like or No.1170, not a STEREO adapter.
5. Place the Chiming Receiver in the best location to be heard within
the 40 ft range. When the need arise to get a caregiver’s attention
simply activate your external capability switch. This will cause the
receiver to chime alerting the caregiver. The chime will sound for
as long as your switch is activated. Please note: the maximum
range of this device under ideal conditions is 40 feet.
6. There are many other useful ways to use this handy device. Please
Note: you cannot use two of these devices in the same room; doing
so will cause activation of both Chiming receivers when one
transmitter has been activated.
Troubleshooting:
Problem: The Attendant Call Chime does not activate.
Action #1: Make sure that all batteries are installed following proper
(+) and (-) polarity. Batteries must be fresh, if weak or dead replace.
Action #2: Make sure that the distance from the receiver and
transmitter is no more than 40 feet away at any given time. This is the
maximum range of use for this device.
Care of Unit:
The Attendant Call Chime can be wiped clean with any household
multi-purpose cleaner and disinfectant. We recommend Simple Green,
which is a non toxic biodegradable all-purpose cleaner.
Do not submerge the unit, as it will damage the contents and the
electrical components.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they will scratch the surface of the
unit.
