• • The audio masking and camera blocking features are engaged. The corner indicator LEDs pulse green every 10 seconds. It is normal to hear a soft white noise coming from SafeCase when in protected mode, a result of the audio masking adapting to the noise level in the environment surrounding SafeCase/iPhone. While in protected mode, most phone features – including apps, videos, emails, music and text messages – can still be accessed.
When you have completed your voice action, release the button (and change back to protected mode). The corner indicator LEDs will blink green five times. [Graphic: Pressing push-to-talk button] Figure 27: Press and hold the push-to-talk button Section 4: Using the Privoro app The Privoro app serves two critical functions: it provides a user interface for SafeCase and it creates a communications channel between SafeCase and cloud.
In the Verification screen: 1. If not already selected, tap the option for the microphone you’d like to test (Back Mic, Front Mic or Bottom Mic), and then tap the Start Recording button (Figure 31). [Screenshot: Front Mic option] Figure 31: Select the microphone to test and tap the Start Recording button 2. In protected mode, look at the audio waveform captured on the screen to confirm that it doesn’t react to environmental noise, only the constant audio masking noise (Figure 32).
[Graphic: Pressing and holding rear button] Figure 35: Press and hold the rear button for three seconds CHECK BATTERY STATUS There are two ways to check SafeCase battery level: via the app or via the battery status LED.

[Graphic: My SafeCase home screen] Figure 36: Check current charge level VIA SAFECASE To check the current charge level via SafeCase, press the power button (Figure 37).
Adjust LED brightness To adjust the brightness of the corner indicator LEDs and battery status LED, press and hold the brightness button for two seconds and then press the button one or more times to cycle through the three brightness levels: high, medium, and off (Figure 40). With each press of the brightness button, the corner indicator LEDs and battery status LED (and power button) will illuminate to the current brightness level and a single-beep audio tone will play.

Appendix C: Safety and handling WARNING: Follow these safety instructions to avoid fire, electric shock, injury, damage to SafeCase or other property. Handling Handle the SafeCase with care. The SafeCase contains a lithium-ion battery, metal, plastic and electronic components. To avoid damage to the SafeCase and the battery, take care not to puncture, drop, burn or crush the SafeCase. The SafeCase is not water-resistant or waterproof. Avoid exposing the SafeCase to excessive moisture or liquid.
Radio frequency (RF) interference Observe signs and notices that prohibit or restrict the use of electronic devices (for example, in healthcare facilities or blasting areas). Although SafeCase is designed, tested and manufactured to comply with regulations governing radio frequency emissions, such emissions from SafeCase can negatively affect the operation of other electronic equipment, causing them to malfunction.
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures: - Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
