Servicing the device
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside the AutoAlert Help Button.
Do not attempt to open or modify the device.
Device battery
• The AutoAlert has a built-in lithium battery that provides a long
service life without the need for replacement or recharging by the
user. The user does not need to monitor the battery life as this is done
automatically by the AutoAlert Help Button. The AutoAlert Help
Button will automatically send a signal when the battery will soon
need to be replaced, and Lifeline will contact you to replace it with
a new button.
• To conserve battery power for Help Calls, the sensors that are used
to detect falls will be disabled when there are approximately 7 days
of battery life remaining. During this time, the AutoAlert Help Button
will not be able to detect falls but will continue to function as a Help
Button that you can push if needed.
• It is important to start using your replacement button as soon
as you receive it. Return your old button to Lifeline using the
envelope provided.
• The AutoAlert Help Button should never be exposed to flames
or intense heat and is not suitable for use in the presence of
flammable mixtures.
• The lithium battery within the AutoAlert Help Button must be
disposed of properly. Do not discard the Help Button in the trash.
Always return the AutoAlert Help Button to Lifeline for proper
disposal.
