issues with either ethyl alcohol (ethanol) or isopropyl alcohol (IPA). ALL other cleaners are not
recommended for use on any of our pagers. To clean the equipment:
1. Take a clean cloth and an isopropyl-alcohol based cleaner.

Changing the Type of Alert on your Customer Pagers

to a minimum, you could set your pagers to Vibrate and Flash only, forgoing the beep to
keep ambient noise down, and the evening more enjoyable for your customers.
These changes are done from your transmitter. It is also highly recommended to make

not to alert customers that may be waiting to be called.

after they are paged, or if the pager is not returned back to the charger until after an

appointment is completed. These changes are done from your transmitter. It is also highly

reception halls, you may find it beneficial to put the pagers to sleep. Putting the pagers to sleep
simply means setting the pagers to turn off. When pagers are asleep, they do not tone when
they are page. This may also prove helpful if you move your Pager System from site to site as
a catering company may.

Shortly after sending the command, all of your Pagers will go to sleep. To wake them back up
again, simply plug the charging racks back into power.
