Signal Range - Philips 7000PHB Instructions For Use Manual

Signal Range

CAUTION
The Help Button is a radio frequency (RF) device that transmits a signal
to a compatible Lifeline Home Communicator. The Home Communicator
must be properly set up, and the coverage range of the Help Button
must be tested prior to use. Please see the Quick Start Guide included in
the box with the Home Communicator for instructions on how to set up
your system and test the coverage range of your Help Button.
Your Help Button and Home Communicator provide coverage inside
your home and may provide coverage in the area immediately outside (in
the yard, etc.). If you live in an apartment building or condominium, you
may have coverage in areas immediately outside your apartment (e.g., the
hallway, stairway, or another floor of the building). A Signal Range Test is
required to determine which areas are covered. Be sure to thoroughly
test the coverage range of the system in all areas of your home.
The signal range may be adversely affected by many things, including:
• Use in an elevator
• A body or other large mass covering the Help Button
(e.g., a person on top of it)
• Building materials (e.g., concrete, metal, etc.)
• Submersion in liquid (while the Help Button itself is waterproof, the signal it
sends may be adversely affected if the Button is activated while submerged
in liquid)
