ONCE

 and 

hold for two (2) seconds until the red light around the emergency button 
lights up. The MobileAlert Device will sound several beeps, then there will 
be a brief silence before an operator comes over the unit to talk to you.

 

  Wait for emergency operator to ask if you are OK.

 

IMPORTANT:  You must tell the operator you are testing and you are OK. 

  Ask the operator if they have a current GPS location on you.  If the 

operator does not have a current GPS location, please call Customer 
Service at 1-800-788-6218. 

 

  Go back inside and place the MobileAlert Device back in the cradle. Now 

Test your Wrist Button or Neck Pendant by pressing and holding down for 
two seconds. 

Only press the button once

 (the red light above the button 

will come on when pressed). The MobileAlert Device will again sound 
several beeps before the operator asks if you are OK. 

 

 

IMPORTANT:  You must tell the operator you are testing and you are OK.

 Final Step 

 

  Your Account is now Successfully Activated and Tested. 

 

  The MobileAlert Device has a GPS receiver that works best when it has an unobstructed view to 

the sky. Therefore, the best place to keep the MobileAlert Device and Cradle is near a window.

 

  Please make sure to return your completed paperwork within 7 days.

 

  It is important that you test your system once a month.
