Using a handset as
a room monitor

If the room monitor is activated, a previ-

ously stored destination number is called

as soon as soon as a set noise level is

reached. You can store an internal or

external number on your handset as the

destination number.
The room monitor call to an external

number stops after approx. 90 seconds.

The room monitor call to an internal

number (handset) stops after approx. 3

minutes (depending on the base station).

While the room monitor is activated, all

keys are locked except the end call key.

The handset's speaker is muted.
When the room monitor is activated,

incoming calls to the handset are indi-

cated without a ringtone and are only

shown on the screen. The display and keys

are not illuminated and advisory tones are

also turned off.
If you accept an incoming call, the room

monitor mode is suspended for the dura-

tion of the call, the function remains acti-

vated.
If you switch off the handset, the room

monitor mode is ended. You must reacti-

vate the function after switching on the

handset again.

Note:

– You should always check the operation

of the room monitor before use. For

example, test its sensitivity. Check the

connection, if you are diverting the room

monitor to an outside number.

– The active room monitor function consider-

ably reduces the operating time of the

handset. Place the handset in the charging

cradle if necessary. This ensures that the

battery does not discharge.

– Ideally the handset should be positioned 1

to 2 metres away from the baby. The micro-

phone must be directed towards the baby.

– The connection to which the room monitor

is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-

vated answering machine.
