1.
After programming is complete, set the “Function” switch on the rear of the Smart Dialler to either
“Mute” or “Alarm” See the information note below as to which setting you would like to use.
2.
Once the Smart Dialler is in the standby mode the display in the indication window will have a
clockwise moving digit. This indicates that the Dialler is now in the “Standby” mode (ready for
use).
3.
Whilst it is in this mode, you can make the Smart Dialler chime loudly simply by pushing the
yellow button for one second on your Wireless pendant. This may be used as a nurse call button to
signal for help within the home.
4.
Please ensure that the receivers of the calls are aware that this test is being performed.
Do not make a test call to triple Zero emergency services.
(Note: The CareAlert Smart Dialler, will commence playing CareAlert’s Message followed
by your message within a few seconds of dialling. This is to satisfy ALL Australian and
International “Pick up” signals. When testing your Smart Dialler, you may notice that
the receiver of the emergency call could answer part way through your message.
This is quite normal and this is why the message is repeated).
5.
With the Smart Dialler in the standby mode (‘Mute’ or ‘Alarm’ setting), it is advisable to wear your
Wireless pendant at all times while in and around your home, so that in case of an emergency, it
can easily be activated. You can also activate your Smart Dialler by holding down the LED indicator
button on the top of the dialler for two seconds.

PLeASe note:
You can set your Dialler to either a “Mute” setting or an “Alarm” setting. On the mute
setting the Dialler will remain silent when it dials out after being activated. This setting is
for security applications (eg shop, office etc...).
On the alarm setting the Dialler, when activated, will play a voice message saying “This is an
emergency situation” and then emit a loud alarm for 10 seconds before dialling out to the stored
numbers. It is generally recommended that you set your function switch to the “Alarm” setting so
that when heard you have confidence, knowing that your dialler is performing its operation to
seek assistance.
