USING YOUR MONITOR
After the monitor has been set up and tested, place your baby in the crib.
If you have selected the Movement and Sound feature on the Parents’ Unit, the Sensor Pad will
detect your baby’s slightest movements and the Nursery and Parents’ Unit will act as a sound
monitor. If you have only selected the Sound feature, it will not detect your baby’s movement but
will continue to work as a regular sound monitor and only transmit nursery sounds.
If you have selected the Movement feature, be sure to turn off the Nursery Unit before you
remove your baby from the crib. If you forget to do this, the alarm will sound after 20 seconds.
Using Your Monitor for More Than One Baby
The Angelcare
® monitor can only be used to monitor the movement of one baby at a time. If
you have twins or you want to monitor two babies at the same time, you will need to purchase
two complete units. Please remember the babies will have to sleep in separate cribs and the
two sets of monitors must be on different channels to work properly. You can use a maximum
of eight Angelcare
® monitors for up to eight babies in one household since the monitor has
eight channels.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Movement Sensitivity Adjustment
The movement sensitivity adjustment dial has been preset to level 2.5 which will suit most
situations. The highest sensitivity level is 5 (most sensitive) and the lowest sensitivity level is 1
(least sensitive).
You may get false alarms if your baby is in a very deep sleep or has moved to the edge of the
crib. If you get false alarms due to these circumstances, you should increase the sensitivity level
by using the sensitivity dial on the back of the Nursery Unit.
NOTE: Adjust the sensitivity level if you receive false alarms and you have followed the advice
in the Troubleshooting section for false alarms. Make a note of the position of the sensitivity dial
before you change it should you wish to return to that setting.
To increase the sensitivity level, start by increasing it by half a level. For example, if the level
is currently at 2.5, increase it to 3. Use the monitor as you normally would. If you still experience
false alarms, increase it by another half level. If you are still experiencing false alarms when
you have reached level 5, please contact our Help Desk at 1-888-232-6476, Mon-Fri from
9:00AM-5:00PM EST.
Because the Sensor Pad may detect movement from many sources from both inside and out-
side your baby’s room, be sure all vibration sources are eliminated before changing the move-
ment sensitivity level. Check to see if the Sensor Pad is resting on a flat, firm surface. Place
the crib near a solid supporting wall and away from strong air currents. Do not use crib mobiles
or accessories that may cause vibrations. Avoid contact with the crib when monitor is in use.
To make sure you have avoided all external sources of vibration, take your baby out of the crib
while the monitor is on. If the alarm does not sound after you take your baby out of the crib,
the sensitivity level may need to be decreased. To decrease the sensitivity level, adjust by half a
level by going from 2.5 to 2. If you are still experiencing this problem when the level is set to 1,
please contact our Help Desk at 1-888-232-6476, Mon-Fri from 9:00AM-5:00PM EST.
