To Save Intensity, Volume, Tone and Heartbeat Settings  

Specific preferences (settings of intensity, volume, tone and heartbeat on or 

off) can be saved for each session.  To save preferences, while the session is 

running, adjust intensity, volume, tone and heartbeat as desired.  Press and 

hold SEL and INT at the same time. The indicator lights 1 to 6 will scroll 

from 1 to 6 and back to 1. Your new preferences will be saved only when 

the session ends (all lights and tones are completely off).  You may use Soft 

Off

TM 

(press and hold INT and VOL) to end the session sooner (2 minutes).

 

Playing Pre-Recorded Material

 

To  play  pre-recorded  material  into  the  headphones,  plug  one  end  of  the 

patch cord provided into the headphone jack of the CD, MP3, computer or 

cassette tape player and plug the other end into the AUDIO IN jack of the 

ALERT. If the playing time of the audio material is longer than the session 

selected, the session  will end, but the audio  material  will continue to play 

and be heard through the headphones.     

Battery Replacement and Power Management 

The ALERT can be powered using a 9-volt battery or with a 9-volt (positive 

centre,  1.3  mm  plug)

 

AC  adapter.  To  replace  the  battery,  slide  battery 

compartment  cover  off.    Ensure  that  the  battery  is  lined  up  properly  for 

positive  (+)  and  negative  (-)  posts.    Refer  to  Figure  2  (page  6).  Slide  the 

bottom of the battery into the battery compartment under the edge, push the 

battery down into place to connect the poles. If the ALERT is plugged into 

an adapter, no power will be used from the battery. The ALERT will remain 

in standby at the end of a session and use minimal battery power.  Turn the 

ALERT off at the end of the session to preserve your battery. An alkaline 9-

volt battery will provide approximately seven

 

hours of operation. NiMH or 

NiCad  battery  may  be  recharged  by  setting  the  PWR/OFF/CHG  switch  to 

the CHG position.  DO NOT try to recharge an alkaline battery.  Damage 

will  occur  and  the  warranty  does  not  cover  damage  from  recharging.  To 

fully  recharge  a  NiMH  battery  will  take  approximately  10  hours  and  will 

provide about 3 hours of operation. To fully recharge a NiCad battery will 

take approximately 5 hours and will provide about 1½ hours of operation. 

 

To Record or Clear Session History

 

Each time you play a preset session, the session number will be stored in the 

ALERT,  so  that  you  can  have  faster  access  to  the  last  three  sessions 

selected.  To clear these sessions, press VOL while the ALERT is scrolling 

for a session to be selected.  This will erase or clear the session history.
