Basic Operation of Alarm

7

Turning the device on

 

When you take the device out of the box it will be 
turned off. To turn it on, press the top Side Talk 
Button. The green, blue and red LEDs will flash 
rapidly and the device will begin to start up. If you 
are in a mobile network area it will usually take 
between 12 to 20 seconds to connect to the available 
mobile network. A slow green flash every 3 seconds 
signifies the device is trying to connect to the 
network. Once connected, the green LED will show a 
fast flash every 3 seconds.

Automatically turning on in charger

 

If the device is off, when you place it in the charger 
or connect the USB magnetic charging cable, it will 
automatically turn on.

When to turn the device off 

There is no need to turn off the device unless you 
will not be using it for a prolonged period of time; 
weeks or months.

To turn it off, click or press the SOS/Heart button 
and the top Side Talk button together till the 
device vibrates. The lights will turn off shortly after 
you feel the vibration.

Turning on and off

Activating your alarm

When you need help

Click or press the SOS/Heart button. The device will vibrate and then 
announce “Your Live Life alarm has been activated. Click the SOS/Heart 
button to stop” before it starts the sequence of help text messages 
along with the outgoing help calls. To cancel the call sequence just click 
the SOS/Heart button.

Help text messages sent

The device will send a help text message to all of your emergency contacts. Mobile 
numbers will receive the messages with the location of the wearer on Google Maps.

Help text sequence begins

 

The device will then begin to call your emergency 
contacts in your chosen order, ringing for 10 seconds 
per contact before trying the next contact, thereby 
avoiding voicemail (if the contact's phone is active 

and on). You will hear each outgoing ringtone. Between each call, your alarm will announce that it is 
about to call the next contact and that you can cancel the call sequence by clicking the SOS/Heart button.

The first person to answer is the person who can talk to you. The wearer listens and speaks through the 
pendant. Each call is limited to 3 minutes. By default, the call sequence loops and tries every contact twice. 
During a call, the contact can press 

1

 on their phone keypad to stop the device calling any further contacts. 

This function does not end the current call.
