- No Activation Costs

Up to 4 user programmable contacts to call anytime.
You can personalize the system to call:
- Up to 4 custom contacts
- Up to 4 custom contacts & then the 911 emergency op-
erator

sable allows you to personally communicate your emer-
gency from anywhere in your home or yard. Emergencies
can happen anywhere.

Traveling? Whether you are moving across town or go-
ing to visit the grand kids across the country - just throw
it in your suitcase. When you get to your destination,
simply plug it into the local phone jack and power outlet.
No additional programming is needed. And if you call
911, they will automatically have the local ‘caller ID’ of
that location.
Voice prompts provide easy set-up and testing.
The Responsable Base unit comes with 4 rechargeable
batteries to provide up to 24 hours of standby power in
the event of a power outage.
Need others to share the system in your home? No prob-
lem. You can add a total of up to 4 Pendants or Emer-
gency Wall Communicators to one Base unit.

Installing the Batteries
Pendant - small white batteries
The Pendant requires one of the white/Li-Ion (Lithium
Ion) batteries at any given time. The pendant should be
able to run up to 4 months on a fully charged battery.
The second battery is to be charging in the Base unit
when not being used in the Pendant. There is no risk of
over charging while in the base charger.
Battery Cap
Li-ion 10440
To install the battery -
unscrew the battery cap of
the Pendant. Install the
battery with the negative side
up facing the cap. Screw
the cap back down snuggly
on the Pendant.
The Pendant Batteries are shipped from the factory
with a partial charge – and will only standby a short
period of time. Your unit has 2 pendant batteries and
it is recommended to exchange the battery that is in
the base charger with the battery in the pendant after
the first day of use. This will ensure the battery in the
pendant is fully charged and will last several months
before needing to be exchanged/charged again.
You can check the battery status at any time by simply
pushing the gray battery test button on the back of the
Pendant for a second.
9
Charging Extra Battery
Place the extra Pendant battery into the front charging
area of the Base unit so that it will charge and be ready
when its time to swap the batteries around. The LED
on the right side will show red when charging and green
when fully charged.
LED
NOTE: These white batteries are special batteries that
are not available at your local store. See “Product Spec-
ifications” on page 49 for more details, or contact
www.PrimaryVolt.com to purchase replacement batteries.
Base - Larger AA Rechargeable Batteries
The Base unit requires 4 rechargeable NiMH batteries.
Unlike the Pendant battery - these are readily available
in many retail stores. Any value of 2400 or higher mAh
capacity is fine. These are to provide you with 24 hours
of battery back-up protection in the event of a power
failure. They will not be damaged by continually charg-
ing in the base unit.
10
When you first get your unit - these batteries will
probably be low, or even fully discharged - and will
need to be charged for 24 hours before being able to
provide you the 24 hour battery back-up protection.
Remove the cover on the bottom of the Base unit.
Install the 4 batteries in the battery compartment area.
A few seconds after you install these, you might hear
“Running on battery power”. When the unit is operat-
ing on the backup batteries, it will announce “Running
On Battery Power” twice and the RED Power LED will
flash continuously. If power is not restored within an 8
hour period, the unit will start to announce “Running
On Battery Power” once every 30 minutes until power is
restored or the back up batteries are depleted. (If you
do not hear this announcement, and the Power LED is
on solid, that means that you have already plugged in
the power adaptor).
NOTE: the voice prompts of “battery is OK” etc. only
apply to the pendant battery - not to the status of the
base unit’s batteries. It is recommended that you re-
place the base unit batteries every 2 years.
