Important things to remember
Remember, the Smartfall will only detect a
fall if you are wearing it.
Due to the wide variety and type of falls,
some falls may not be detected. For
example, a slow gradual slide out of a chair is
unlikely to be detected as a fall. In the event
of a fall you should always try to press the
help button on the Smartfall.
The Smartfall must be worn in accordance
with the wearing instructions, do not change
the wearing option once your preferred
method has been chosen.
If you fall and the fall is detected but you
cannot press the help button, the Smartfall
will generate a call for assistance within 10
seconds.
Test the Smartfall monthly by pressing the
help button.
Regularly check the status LED on the
Smartfall (see page 25).
