About Libris
Libris, a personal mobile responder,
is cellular-enabled and designed to
provide you personal emergency re-
sponse services whether you are at
home, away from home, and even in
the shower or bath.
Libris is designed to detect if you’ve
fallen, automatically call and allow
you to speak with your response
team, and provide information about
your location. Your response team
can then notify emergency services
for you, if needed.

Important Safety
Information
For proper operation, Libris requires
adequate cellular coverage. Poor
cellular coverage may result in the
inability to place a call or automati-
cally detect a fall. Check with your
response team for known coverage
limitations.
As with all location-based services,
it may not always be possible to
determine your location. Multi-level
buildings, parking garages, and
even dense urban areas can make it
difficult for satellites and cell phone
towers to locate your exact location.
In an emergency, please provide
your response team with as much
information as possible about your
location.

Libris is not a replacement for
regular contact with caregivers or
access to an alternative means of
placing an emergency call.
While the fall detection system per-
forms well, no such system is 100%
reliable. If you experience a fall that
causes actual or potential injury, do
not wait for the automatic call. You
should always press the Call Button
manually in an emergency if you are
able.
Libris requires adequate battery
charge for proper operation. Low
battery may result in the inability to
place a call, automatically detect a
fall, and/or properly locate you auto-
matically during an emergency.
Libris is designed to be highly
water-resistant, not waterproof.
Usage other than as directed may

result in the inability to place a call,
automatically detect a fall, and/or
properly locate you automatically
during an emergency.
Use only the Numera-provided
Charger and Power Cord. Keep the
Charger and Power Cord in good
condition and located where they
do not pose a safety hazard.
Use only the Numera-provided Lan-
yard. To reduce risk of strangula-
tion, the Libris Lanyard is designed
to break apart under certain con-
ditions. Any cord worn around the
neck, however, can pose a risk of
strangulation, including the pos-
sibility of serious injury and death.
Libris users and caregivers should
exercise care with the Lanyard to
ensure it does not get caught or
tangled in wheelchairs, walkers and
other such equipment.

Do not modify or dismantle Libris
at any time, as this will void the
warranty. The battery in Libris is
not designed to be removed or
replaced. There is a risk of explo-
sion if the battery is tampered with,
replaced with an incorrect type or
manipulated in any way.
Hold Libris a minimum of 1 inch
away from your body with the micro-
phone near your mouth to complete
an emergency call.

Turning On and Off
To turn Libris on, press the Call
Button and hold it until the Battery
Indicator flashes. Libris will play
music while it starts up. Once con-
nected, Libris will play a message:
“Your personal mobile responder is
ready.”
Placing Libris into the Charger will
turn it on automatically. Start-up
audio prompts are silenced while
this function is carried out in the
Charger.
To turn Libris off, press the Call
Button twice, holding down the
second press for 7 seconds until
Libris plays a message announcing
that you have requested to turn it off.
It will ask you to confirm by pressing
the Call Button one more time. If

14
done correctly, Libris will play the
following message: “Powering off
now. Good bye.”
Note: When you first receive Libris,
leave it in the Charger for 4 hours.
Activation and Set Up
ÂStep 1: Activate Libris
1. Plug the small round end of
the Power Cord into the Power
Port located in the back of the
Charger. Plug the large end of
the Power Cord into a standard
wall outlet.
2. Place Libris into the Charger.
While charging, the
Cellular and Battery
Indicators will be
on and show your

15
current cel lular signal strength
and level of battery charge.
3. Libris will automatically turn on
when placed in the Charger and
will play a short start up tone,
followed by a message indicating
it is ready for its first use: “We are
activating your personal mobile
responder. We will notify you
when activation is complete.”
Libris will automatically receive
any updates and, once activated
on the cellular network, will say:
“Activation is now complete. We
are resetting your personal mobile
responder so it is ready for your
use. One moment please.” Allow
up to a minute for Libris to restart.
4. Libris will then play a message:
“This personal mobile responder

16
will notify your response team
when it detects a fall. With one
touch of the call button your
response team will be available to
assist you and will pinpoint your
location so help can reach you.”
ÂStep 2: Call to Complete Set
Up
1. To register your personal mobile
responder with your response
team, Libris will say: “It’s time
to meet your response team.
Please press and hold the Call
Button down to connect to your
response team now.”
2. With Libris in the Charger, press
and hold the Call Button until
Libris initiates the call. Libris can

17
remain in the Charger during the
call to your response team.
3. Listen for the audio message:
“Calling your response team
now.”
4. When you complete the call with
your response team, Libris will be
set up.
!
Important: Libris is not ready
for use until you have completed
the set up call with your response
team and, following that call, have
charged Libris in the Charger for 4
hours.
Note: If Libris does not power on
and begin the activation process or
cannot detect a cellular network, call
your response team.

adequate battery charge to function
properly. Prior to use, please
charge Libris at least 4 hours. We

20
recommend charging the device
each night.

shows cellular signal strength.
• When the Cellular Indicator is

red, Libris has no signal. Move
to an area where you get a
cellular signal. Libris will not
