  1. Press and hold the central circular SOS Button for 2 seconds.
  2. Listen for the voice prompt: “Call in progress.”
  3. When the specialist answers, clearly say: “This is just a routine test.”
  4. The monitoring specialist will confirm that your Belle S is communicating properly and that you can hear and speak with the monitoring center. The specialist will then end the test call.

Follow any additional testing instructions previously supplied by us.

Fall Detection: How It Works & False Alarms

If your Belle S includes automatic Fall Detection, the device is designed to recognize certain falls and automatically contact the emergency monitoring center. Fall Detection is an optional feature and may not detect every fall. Always press your emergency button if you need help and are able to do so.

Accidental Fall Alarms: If your Belle S activates an alarm when you do not need assistance, remain available to speak with the monitoring specialist. Explain that you are safe and do not require help. If you have fallen and need assistance, stay connected and follow the specialist's instructions.

Wear the device according to the instructions supplied with your unit.

Cleaning, Maintenance & Shower Safety

Keeping your device clean helps maintain sound quality and reliable charging.

  • Shower Safety: The Belle S is designed to be water-resistant and can be worn while showering. Avoid exposing the device to soaps, shampoos, or cleaning chemicals whenever possible. Follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding water exposure and never place the device in its charging cradle while wet.
  • Cleaning Gold Pins: Every week, wipe the charging contacts on the back of the device with a soft, dry cloth. Dust or body oils can interfere with charging.
  • Speaker Guard: Gently remove lint from speaker openings without inserting anything into the holes.
