6. Operation

6.1. Programming Emergency Numbers

The device allows you to pre-program up to 3 emergency telephone numbers. These numbers will be dialed sequentially when the alarm is triggered.

1. Open the keypad cover on the main unit.
2. Press the 'SET' button (usually indicated by a gear icon or similar). The display or an indicator light may show that the unit is in programming mode.
3. Enter the first emergency number using the keypad (e.g., 112, 911, or a family member's number).
4. Press the '#' button to confirm the number.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the second and third emergency numbers.
6. Press the 'SET' button again to exit programming mode.

Note: Ensure the numbers include any necessary prefixes for external calls (e.g., '0' for an outside line if applicable).

6.2. Using the Panic Button

In an emergency, press and hold the large button on the remote control / panic button for approximately 2-3 seconds. The main unit will:

1. Emit an audible alarm (if enabled).
2. Begin dialing the first pre-programmed emergency number.
3. If the first number is busy or unanswered after a set number of rings, it will hang up and dial the second number, and so on, until a connection is made.
4. When a call is answered, the unit will play a pre-recorded message (if configured) or allow two-way communication through its built-in microphone and speaker.

6.3. Cancelling an Alarm Call

To stop an active alarm call, press the 'CANCEL' button (often indicated by a phone hang-up icon) on the main unit's keypad.

6.4. Testing the System

It is crucial to regularly test your alarm system. Inform the person whose number you are calling that you are conducting a test. Press the panic button and verify that the call is placed and received correctly.

7. Maintenance

7.1. Cleaning

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
