ask for help
Use this option in the event of a non-life-threatening situation to notify
your SPOTteam – the friends and family you have chosen to notify – that
you need assistance. Or, in the event of a life-threatening emergency, 9-1-1
and HELP can be activated simultaneously to notify both the Emergency
Response Center and your SPOTteam that you are in distress. Even if SPOT
can not acquire its location from the GPS network, it will still attempt to send a distress signal
– without exact location – to your selected contacts.
to activate:
Press and hold the HELP button for 2 seconds. The SPOTteam members you have specified in
your online account will receive a pre-programmed distress message via text message and/or
email with a link to Google Maps
™
with your exact location. Once activated, the indicator light
will blink green every 3 seconds, and turn solid green for 5 seconds when a message is being
sent. SPOT will automatically determine your coordinates and send your message every 5
minutes for 1 hour in this mode.
to cancel:
Press and hold the HELP button for 3 seconds. The indicator light will change from green to red
to indicate that it is preparing to send a “Cancel” message, and will then turn solid red for 5
seconds to indicate that the message has been sent.
