Using the belt clip/support
You can use the belt clip/support as a belt clip by turning it
upwards.
When turned downwards, it can be used as a support to
stand up the parent unit.
In-use time and battery charging
Depending on the usage; the Parent Unit will work for up to
8 hours on a fully charged battery with VOX turned ON. If
the battery on the Parent Unit is low the green power LED
flashes slowly. You can still use your Parent Unit from the
Charger Pod. When charging, the red power LED lights up
on the charger. Note: We recommend that you TURN OFF
the parent unit when it is not in-use, to conserve battery
power. To speed up the charging process turn the Parent
unit off when charging if it is not being used.
You can continue to use your Parent unit to monitor your
baby even when the battery is low, provided it remains in
the charger cradle to recharge the battery.
Note:
The parent unit can be kept on the charger even if it is fully
charged it will not affect the battery life. The parent unit can
be used on or off the charger pod. When on the charger
pod, the battery will be recharged at the same time.
However, the time it takes to charge the battery to full will
be longer when the unit is charged and used at the same
time.
Running rechargeable battery packs right down at least
once a fortnight will help them last as long as possible. The
charge capacity of rechargeable battery packs will reduce
with time as they age, so reducing the performance time of
the parent unit.
Battery and Charger information
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will eventually wear out. When the in use time
is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to replace the
battery pack. You can purchase replacement battery packs
online at www.oricom.com.au
For added convenience you may wish to purchase an
additional charging cradle for the parent unit to be placed in
another room in the house.
