Using a handset as a room
monitor

With this function, a previously stored

internal or external number is called when

a set noise level in the room is reached.

The room monitor remains activated on

the handset even after you hang up.
The handset should be between 1 and

2 metres away from the baby. The

microphone must be directed towards the

baby.
When the room monitor is activated,

incoming calls to the handset which is

near the baby are indicated without a

ring tone, they are just shown on the

display. The display and the key pad are

not illuminated.
When entering an external telephone

number, make sure:

The handset must not be blocked for

outgoing calls.

The number to which the room

monitor call is forwarded must not be

blocked by an activated answering

machine.

Always check the settings of the

room monitor before you leave

home. For example, test its

sensitivity. Check the phone line if

the room monitor is redirected to an

external number.

A room monitor stops calling an

external number after around

90 seconds. Room monitor calls to an

internal number (handset) stop after

about 3 minutes.

The activated room monitor function

reduces the handset operating time

considerably. Place the handset in the

charger to prevent the battery from

going flat.

The room monitor function can also be

used in Walk and Talk mode (p. 45).
