The user simply hooks the alarm onto themselves, such as their belt, their purse/handbag, or hooked onto their pocket. Siren Alarm A firm pull of the metal pin at the bottom of the chain activates the alarm, separating the chain from the personal alarm Trace. The circle on the other side of the SOS button is where the sound comes from and can be a red herring to confuse any attackers who try to turn off the alarm. The actual way to turn it off is to insert the pin back into place. SOS Button & App Download the Guardian Trace app onto your smartphone.
