1 INTRODUCTION
The FX-3850 is a comfort phone with extensive functions to support
especially people with impaired hearing or sight.
Sight support:
- Big keys with contrasting numbers.

These will be spoken when searching the memory.

- Adjustable handset volume.
- Activation hearing aids.
Beside these extensive phone functions, the FX-3850 offers the possibility
to call a number of people, up to 30, automatically in case you need help.
- Alarm activation directly on the phone or through the included remote

So if you need help, and you press the red ‘SOS’ button on your phone,
or the red ‘SOS’ button on the remote control, these people will be called
one-by-one, and they will hear your recorded emergency message.
As soon as a called person actually responds, they can enable the
handsfree function of your phone remotely, and where possible consult
with and arrange help.
This way you do not depend on ofcial emergency centers, with their
monthly subscription fees, and you can also call for help for less urgent
issues.
