4. OPERATION
IMPORTANT!
Before using the Babysitter, check the sound
transmission to ensure that both units function
correctly. After this first check, sound
transmission should be checked on a regular
basis as follows:
• Have an adult softly speak into the
transmitter.
– Sounds transmitted from the baby room
should be heard clearly via the receiver in
another room.
CHANNEL SELECTION
– The Babysitter can use 2 different channels
for radio signal transmission. If sound
reception is very poor, please try the other
transmission channel as follows:
• Move the channel selector on both units to
the other channel (fig. 1.2 and fig. 1.7) .
Note: Always make sure the channel switches
on both units are set to the same
position. This ensures optimum
reception.
VISUAL SOUND INDICATION
The receiver has a sound level indicator, which
visually alerts parents to their baby’s crying,
but no sound is heard via the speaker. To
operate the sound level indicator:
• Make sure the transmitter is operational in
VOICE mode.
• Switch the receiver on to the minimum
sound level by adjusting the VOLUME
control
(fig.1.4) .
– If a sound signal is received from the
transmitter, the green sound LEVEL LEDs
(fig. 1.5) light up. The louder the sound, the
more LEDs light up.
ANTI-INTERFERENCE TECHNOLOGY
To reduce the reception of other signals, the
unit checks each received signal for a special
code. In this way annoying transmissions from
e.g. radio amateurs, cordless telephones or
other brands of babysitters are reduced to a
minimum.
TRANSMISSION CONTROL
If the receiver is switched on, it will check that
the transmitter is still within transmission
range. If the signal is blocked, or if the baby
unit is placed out of range of the receiver for
more than 30 seconds the receiver starts
beeping. To stop this beeping, try one of the
following options:
• Move the receiver closer to the transmitter
to restore sound reception again.
– The maximum operating distance is 300 m.
in ideal conditions.
• Switch to the other transmission channel
(see chapter ‘Channel Selection’) .
• Check batteries in both transmitter and
receiver (in case batteries are low).
ROOM TEMPERTURE INDICATION
The transmitter has a built-in thermometer to
check the temperature inside baby’s room.
The temperature which is shown in green is
the current room temperature.
RECHARGEABILITY
The receiver has a recharging function. If the
rechargeable batteries are empty they can be
recharged easily via the recharging base. To
recharge batteries:
• Make sure that the mains power adapter is
correctly connected to the recharging base.
– If the mains power adapter is connected
correctly, the red CHARGE LED on the
recharging base lights up.
• Place the receiver inside the recharging
base; batteries start to recharge.
– Totally empty batteries will take up 12-14
hours to fully recharge.
BELT-CLIP
With completely charged batteries, the
receiver can be used as a truly cordless
product. The unit can be carried in and around
the house, using the easy belt-clip. This clip
can easily be attached to and removed from
the receiver
(fig. 5) .
