1 2 Lifeline Service Chapter 1 Lifeline Service Topics described in this chapter include:

Getting Started ..........................................................................................4 Lifeline Help Button .................................................................................4 Responders and People to Notify .........................................................6 3 Getting Started The Quick Start Guide, included in the box, provides simple, step-by-step instructions on how to set up your equipment and test the coverage range of your Lifeline Help Button. If you have any questions, please contact Lifeline. Lifeline Help Button Your Lifeline Help Button provides a direct connection to Lifeline and allows you to summon assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When you press your Lifeline Help Button, it transmits a signal to your Lifeline Cordless Phone. The phone automatically calls the Lifeline Response Center, and a Personal Response Associate will come on the line to see if you need assistance.

Always wear your Lifeline Help Button. Your Lifeline Help Button is waterproof and should be worn at all times even when bathing and sleeping. It is your direct connection to Lifeline. Important Reminders Wear your Lifeline Help Button in your home at all times, especially while sleeping and bathing. The bathroom is often the place where people fall and need help. Your Lifeline Help Button is waterproof and should be worn in the shower or bath. Your Lifeline Help Button is not a microphone, so you dont talk into it. Instead, press the Help Button and speak into the handset or in the direction of the base speakerphone or optional Voice Extension. You may order additional Lifeline Help Buttons for other members of your household. For more information, please contact Lifeline. Be sure to test the range of your Lifeline Help Button when you set up the system. See the Quick Start Guide for instructions. 4 Lifeline Service Test your Lifeline Help Button every month by pressing it and placing a check-in call to the Lifeline Response Center. See page 22 for instructions. Do not remove the label on the back of your Lifeline Help Button. The label ensures that your Lifeline Help Button remains waterproof. If the label is removed, peeling off, or damaged in any way, please contact Lifeline. Do not put your Lifeline Help Button through the clothes washer, dryer or dishwasher. Your Lifeline Help Button can only be serviced in the factory. There are no user-replaceable parts inside of it. Like all cordless phones, your Lifeline Cordless Phone requires AC power to operate. However, in the event of a power outage, your Lifeline Cordless Phone will provide up to 1 hour of backup power for regular phone calls and 30 hours of backup power for Help Calls. Your Lifeline Service will not work if there is a power outage of more than 30 hours. It is typically recommended that Lifeline subscribers also have a corded phone in their home, which can function throughout a power outage. The Lifeline Cordless Phone relies on electrical and telephone service that is wholly beyond the control of Lifeline. If your telephone service is out of order or disconnected, your equipment will not operate. If you have another phone in a different area of your home and it is left off-hook, your Lifeline Cordless Phone will not be able to place a Help Call. To make sure that your Lifeline Cordless Phone can place a Help Call when needed, plug the other phone(s) into the phone accessory jack on the back of your Lifeline Cordless Phones base. If you need assistance, please call Lifeline. 5 Responders and People to Notify As a Lifeline subscriber, you should identify one or more people who will agree to respond in the event of an incident. These are called Responders. Typically, Responders are family members, friends or neighbors who are nearby and can come to assist you. Often, there are other people who are not available to assist you but who would like to know that you needed assistance. These could be family members in another area or healthcare professionals who are involved in your care. These people are referred to as People to Notify. Choosing a Responder It is best to choose a Responder who:

Has a key to your home or knows where one is located

(perhaps in a key lockbox). Could come to help you at different times of the day or night. Lives or works within 10 minutes of where you live. Is physically capable of assisting you if you need help. Information Lifeline Needs About Responders Please ensure that Lifeline has the following information about each person acting as a Responder.

But first, please turn off your Lifeline Cordless Phone to avoid sending a false Help Call. 1. Move the power switch on the back of the phone base to the OFF position. 2. Wash your wrist strap or adjustable neck cord with a mild liquid dishwashing detergent. 3. Gently wipe your Lifeline Help Button with an isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol wipe or a cotton pad moistened with alcohol. Do not soak it in the alcohol, however. 4. Blot excess moisture with a towel and allow the Help Button to air-dry. 5. Be sure to move the power switch on the back of the phone base to the ON position. 6. Test your system by pressing your Lifeline Help Button. Tell the Personal Response Associate that you are just testing your equipment after cleaning. 42 Tips and Techniques Phone Base and Handset You should keep your equipment free of dust by occasionally wiping it with a soft cotton cloth. If additional cleaning is required, you should first turn off the power and then disconnect the cords from the wall. This will prevent false button presses and possible damage to the equipment. 1. Slide the power switch to the OFF position and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Unplug the telephone cord from the wall jack. 2. Slightly dampen a soft cloth with a mild all-purpose cleaner and gently wipe the surfaces clean. Never use detergents, excess water, treated cloths or sprays. Do not spray or pour any cleaner directly onto the equipment, as excessive moisture will damage it. Do not use aerosols on or near the phone base. 3. Reconnect the power cord to the electrical outlet, reconnect the telephone cord to the wall jack, and then turn the power switch back to ON. 4. Test your system by pressing your Lifeline Help Button. Tell the Personal Response Associate that you are just testing your equipment after cleaning.

Remember to turn the power OFF and disconnect all cords before cleaning. Do not spray cleaners directly onto equipment because moisture could get inside and cause damage. 43 Turning On Enunciated Dialing Your Lifeline Cordless Phone has the ability to announce each number as it is pressed.

Please contact Lifeline to arrange for a replacement. 49 Safety Information The phone base, additional handset and optional Voice Extension must be placed in an indoor living area. Take care not to block the microphone hole located on the bottom of the phone base and the optional Voice Extension. For example, do not place them on a tablecloth or padded surface. Make sure that you do not plug your equipment into an electrical outlet that is controlled by a wall switch, because someone could accidentally turn off the power. Make sure that the phone base is away from any clutter or any object that might block its ability to receive a signal from your Lifeline Help Button. The phone should not be placed on or near your refrigerator or any type of metal cabinet or bookcase, since this may limit the effective range of the Lifeline Help Button. To reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not place the equipment in or near water or other liquids. Never carry the equipment by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from an electrical outlet. Instead, grasp the plug and gently pull to disconnect. Do not spray cleaners directly onto your equipment because moisture could get inside and cause damage. 50 Frequently Asked Questions Chapter 11 Frequently Asked Questions Topics described in this chapter include:

The difference between the Slimline and the Classic Lifeline Help Buttons is their appearance. Additionally, the Slimline Help Button can be worn on the wrist with a strap. The functionality of both is the same. How can I get a Lifeline Help Button on a wrist strap?

When you received your Philips Lifeline Cordless Phone Communicator, you may have been given a neck cord, since that is the most popular way to wear the Lifeline Help Button. If you would like to order a wrist strap, please contact Lifeline. 53 Your Lifeline Cordless Phone Will the phone work during a power outage?

Your Lifeline Cordless Phone has battery backup power, which means that it can function during a power outage, provided that your phone service is working. It will provide up to 30 hours of backup power for Help Calls and up to one hour for regular phone calls. For further information, please refer to page 49. How can I be sure my Lifeline Cordless Phone is working?

Your phone is working properly as long as the green power Indicator on the base is lit and the Reset button is not blinking. If the yellow Reset button is blinking, please press the Reset button to hear what is wrong. How far away from the phone will the Lifeline Help Button work?

Your Help Button provides coverage inside your home and may provide coverage in the area immediately outside (yard, porch, etc.). When you set up your Lifeline Cordless Phone, you should test your Lifeline Help Buttons signal range to determine which areas of your home are covered. See the Quick Start Guide for instructions. Why do I need to place the phone and the Voice Extension on a hard surface?

It is important to place the phone and optional Voice Extension on a hard surface because the microphones that are used to hear your voice are located on the bottom. A hard surface is required in order to provide the best possible sound quality. Why is the handset beeping?

The Find button on the phone base may have been pressed. When Find is pressed, the handset will beep for up to 5 minutes to help you locate it. Press any key on the handset to stop the beeping. Why dont I hear the handset beeping after pressing the Find button?

There are a few possible explanations. The handset may be under a pillow, blanket or cushion that is muffling the sound. Or, the handset may be sitting in the optional charger. Or, the handset battery may be completely discharged. 54 Frequently Asked Questions Do I need to change batteries?

Lifeline will contact you when the battery in the phone base needs to be replaced. If the handset or Voice Extension cannot take a charge, please contact Lifeline. Is there a difference between the Help Button on the phone base and my Lifeline Help Button?

No, they will both place calls to the Lifeline Response Center when pressed. The Lifeline Button that you wear around your neck (or on your wrist) is always with you, so it is more convenient to use since you are not always near your phone base. Do I need to test my Lifeline Cordless Phone?

Lifeline wants you to check in once a month by pressing your Lifeline Help Button to confirm that your phone and your Help Button are working normally. If you forget to check in, the phone will remind you. Please refer to page 22. Are my two handsets from Philips Lifeline interchangeable?

You may have to introduce the Voice Extension to your phone. Please contact Lifeline for assistance. 55 Calling for Help What happens if I make a Help Call and the Lifeline Response Center cant hear me?

The Personal Response Associate will probably be able to hear you through the highly sensitive microphone. However, if you cannot be heard or if you cannot speak, Lifeline will place another call to your home. If no one answers, help will be sent quickly. Do I use the Lifeline Help Button to speak with Lifeline?

No, the Lifeline Help Button is not a microphone. You do not speak into it. Rather, the button sends a signal to the phone, which then calls Lifeline. You should speak into the handset or in the direction of the phone base or the optional Voice Extension. What happens if I press my Lifeline Help Button and cant hear the Personal Response Associate?

Stay where you are. The Personal Response Associate will probably be able to hear you, but if not, he or she will place another call to your home. If no one answers, help will be sent quickly. Monthly Check-in Call Do I have to check in on a particular day or time?

No, you can check in at any time that is convenient for you. Many people find it helpful to select the date of their birthday to make their check-in call. For example, if your birthday is January 8th, you might make your check-in call on the 8th of every month. How will I remember when it is time for the monthly check-in?

Your Lifeline Cordless Phone will remind you. If you have gone 32 consecutive days without pressing your Lifeline Help Button, the yellow Reset button on the phone will start blinking, and both the phone base and the handset will display: Time to Test Your Lifeline. 56 Frequently Asked Questions Answering Telephone Calls Why is the Talk button on the handset blinking?

The Hold button is the same as a Flash button on other phones. 57 Charging the Handset How can I be sure that the handset is charged?

If Ready is displayed on the handset, then it is charged and ready for use. If the handset battery needs to be recharged, Low Battery will be displayed on the handset, and the yellow Reset button on the phone base will start blinking. Why isnt the handset recharging?
