How to Activate the TLC Flip3 Emergency Button
Setting up the emergency button on your TLC Flip3 is quick and easy. Follow these steps to ensure it’s always ready for use:

- This activates the button, allowing it to alert emergency contacts or services when pressed.
Step 4: Add Emergency Contacts

Optional Step 5: Customize Alert Options

Using the TLC Flip3 Emergency Button in a Critical Moment
When every second matters, the TLC Flip3 emergency button is designed to operate with minimal effort. Here’s how:
How to Trigger the Emergency Button
- Press and Hold the designated emergency button for 3 seconds. This simple action ensures accidental presses don’t trigger it unnecessarily.
- The device will vibrate or beep to confirm the alert has been initiated.
What Happens Next?
- Contacting Help:
- The device will either dial the emergency services number (e.g., 911 in the U.S.) or reach out to your chosen emergency contacts.
- Alert Messages:
- Depending on your setup, automated messages with your location details will be sent to your emergency contacts.
- Confirmation:
- Visual and audio cues confirm your alert has been submitted.
Ensure you practice this sequence once (a test alert without contacting services) to familiarize yourself with the process.
Customizing the Emergency Button for Your Needs
One of the unique advantages of the TLC Flip3 is its flexibility. Customize the emergency button to suit your personal or family-specific needs:
Features You Can Personalize
- Alert Recipients:
- Update the contact list based on who is most accessible.
- For instance, a family caregiver or close neighbor may be better suited than distant relatives.
- Trigger Sensitivity:
- Adjust the hold duration for the button press to reduce false alarms.
- Emergency Modes:
- For some users, silent operation is preferable—opt to deactivate sounds during alerts.
By taking the time to personalize these features, you ensure the emergency button serves you as effectively as possible.
