  • Page 3 The coverage area of the pendant will vary from one home to another. It is important for you to know the effective range of your pendant. The SEFD1 is designed to detect falls that meet certain criteria. It may not detect every fall, especially slight falls that are generally not disabling. The SEFD1 Fall Detection device may also generate a fall alarm when you have not fallen.
  • Page 4 Suggested locations for wearing the SEFD1: • On Your Waist: The SEFD1 can be attached to a belt or the waistband of your pants. A belt clip is provided, designed to easily attach to a belt. To attach the pendant to a belt, pull the clip away from the device and slip it over the belt, or turn the device sideways and rotate it to slide it onto the belt (see below).
  • Page 5 The SEFD1 also sends a low battery signal to the base station which is then sent to the monitoring center. The monitoring center will call you at a convenient time to remind you to replace the batteries.
  • Page 6 Cleaning the SEFD1 If the SEFD1 needs cleaning, use a damp cloth to wipe the unit. You may want to turn off the power to the base station to prevent transmitting a false alarm if you press the help button or drop the unit during cleaning.
  • Page 7 • History of broken bones Perform the steps below to test the fall detection sensor. Place the SEFD1 in the palm of your hand so that the help button is facing up and outward. Hold up your hand with the SEFD1 in it. Your arm should be upright and your palm holding the unit should be directly above your elbow (similar to taking an oath in court).
