have to perform during your short procedure.
To start monitoring again after a restart, follow
these steps:
1. Make sure the Patch is attached in the proper
position on your chest.
2. Make sure the Pendant
is firmly in its Cradle
and powered on and
the green light is
flashing rapidly.
3. Press the Symptom
button three times.
4. Confirm the green light
is flashing slowly,
indicating monitoring
has begun.
*Any other visual or audible indication
may mean the Pendant needs attention.
