This is for the basic set-up of your Life Assure™ Mobile IH. Please see the owner’s manual for full instructions, product details, warranty, and disclaimers.
Plug one end of the charging cable into the back of the wall power adapter and the other end into the back of the desktop charger.
Plug the wall power adapter into a standard power outlet.
Place the Life Assure™ Mobile IH pendant into the desktop charger. You should feel a magnetic pull as you slip the pendant into the charger.
The blue charging lights in the ring around the grey button on your pendant will flash every 5 seconds, indicating that the unit is charging. The unit’s voice prompt will say, ‘welcome’, if it is powering on for the first time, or if the battery was drained prior to charging.
The unit is fully charged when the blue lights stay illuminated, and no longer flashes. Battery charge takes about 2-3 hours to complete.
Remove the pendant from the desktop charger, and press and hold the large grey button on the front of your Life Assure™ Mobile IH for 2 seconds and release.
You will hear the unit’s voice prompt say, ‘your emergency call is being placed now - please standby’
You will hear the unit dialing. Wait a few moments to hear the operator’s voice through the pendant, identifying themselves and asking you if everything is OK.
Identify yourself to the operator and tell him/her that you are simply testing your system.
Your Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit is now activated and ready for use.
If an emergency call is attempted to be placed, and no wireless coverage is available, the unit will announce ‘no wireless coverage, the call cannot be placed'.
The green light around the button on your Life Assure™ Mobile IH indicates the unit is in use. We recommend you test your Mobile IH Medical Alarm medical alarm on a weekly basis to ensure the unit is working properly.
Press the large grey button on the front of your Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit for two (2) seconds and then release. The voice prompt on the unit will say “your emergency call is being placed now, please stand by.”
‘Tap’ the large grey button on the front of your Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit two (2) times and then press the button again for two (2) seconds and then release. The voice prompt on the unit will say “your test call is being placed now, please stand by.”
It is recommended that you test your unit weekly.
In the event of an emergency, press the large grey button on the front of your Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit for two (2) seconds and release. When the emergency operator answers, speak in a normal voice and explain the nature of your emergency. There is no need to put the unit up to your ear unless you are having trouble hearing. There is no need to hold the unit up to your mouth. You will be clearly heard, even if the unit is an arm’s length away. Your Life Assure™ Mobile IH mobile medical alarm is a two-way device, which means that you can speak to the operator through the Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit and he/she will hear you; and the operator can speak to you and you will hear him/her through your unit as well.
The operator should be able to hear you if you are wearing the Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit on your arm, neck, or belt. However, for optimal audio, it is best to hold the Life Assure™ Mobile IH approximately 10 inches in front of your mouth.
If there is an accidental, unwanted activation, you can simply tell the operator that there is no emergency and that you do not need help.
If you press the button but are unable to speak, the operator can still listen in for sounds of distress. If no voices/sounds are detected, the operator will dispatch help.
In the event a loved one wants to locate you, they can do so by texting the word ‘TRACK’ (without quotes and not case sensitive) to your Mobile IH assigned phone number. The person requesting your Life Assure™ Mobile IH location will receive a text message with a link. They will be able to click on the link, and their phone will display your location along with an address, if available. Your loved ones must have a smartphone equipped with texting and Internet service to utilize this service (no app is required).
In the event you have misplaced your pendant, text the word ‘RING’ (without quotes and not case-sensitive) to your assigned Life Assure™ Mobile IH phone number. The unit will emit an audible ringing sound. Ring will time out (turn off) after 12 rings.
Automated fall detection will measure your sway, orientation, and impact with a surface. If the unit detects that you have fallen, it will automatically call the monitoring center to report the fall. If you are unable to speak, the operator will send help.
Fall detection is not 100% accurate; the call button should be pushed in an emergency if a fall is not detected.
Wait until an operator comes on the line and let them know everything is okay.
Your Life Assure™ Mobile IH unit should be worn at all times. You have the option of wearing it around your neck, on the attached holster, or around your wrist.
