Using a handset in Walky-Talky
mode as a room monitor
This function allows you to use the Walky-
Talky mode as a room monitor. The room
monitor will then call all handsets that are
in Walky-Talky mode as soon as the previ-
ously set noise level has been reached.
During the call, all keys are locked except
the end call key. The room monitor
function remains active after you end the
call. It must be activated again if the hand-
set has been switched off.

Shortcuts for functions
and numbers
You can assign the left display key and the
digit keys
Q and 2 to O with a
number or a function each.
The number is then dialled or the function
started by simply pressing a key.
Note:
– You should always check the operation
of the room monitor before use. Always
check e.g. the sensitivity and phone line.
– 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.
– The handset should be positioned 1 to
2 meters away from the baby. The micro-
phone must be directed towards the baby.
– Please note that the Walky-Talky function's
room monitor does not provide optimum
security.
