Question Answer
Why does the operating
time of the rechargeable
battery pack decrease after
each new charging cycle?
The battery pack approaches the end of its life and soon has to
be replaced. The life of the battery pack decreases if you leave the
parent unit continuously connected to the mains by placing it in a
plugged-in charger.
Why does the parent unit
react too slowly to the baby’s
sounds?
The microphone sensitivity level on the baby unit is too low. Set
the microphone sensitivity to a higher level.
Move the baby unit closer to the baby. Make sure the baby unit is
at least 1 metre/3 feet away from your baby.
Why does the parent unit
react too quickly to ambient
sounds?
The microphone sensitivity level on the baby unit is too low. Set
the microphone sensitivity to a higher level.
Move the baby unit closer to the baby. Make sure the baby unit is
at least 1 metre/3 feet away from your baby.
Why do I get no sound out
of the parent unit?
The parent unit is set to a different channel than the baby unit. Set
both units to the same channel.
The baby unit is not switched on. Press the POWER button on
the baby unit to switch it on.
The microphone sensitivity level on the baby unit is too low. Set
the microphone sensitivity to a higher level.
The volume of the parent unit is set too low. Turn the VOLUME
control to a higher level.
Why does the parent unit
squeal/produce a high-
pitched noise?
The parent unit is too close to the baby unit. Move the parent
unit at least 1 metre/3 feet away from the baby unit.
If this does not help, the volume is too high. Turn the VOLUME
control to select a lower volume.
Why do I get interference on
the parent unit?
Perhaps the parent unit is out of range of the baby unit. Place the
parent unit closer to the baby unit.
Perhaps the baby unit or parent unit is too close to a mobile or
cordless phone, a radio or a TV. Move the unit away from this
source of interference.
Why does the parent unit
pick up signals from another
baby monitor?
The baby monitor operates on the same channel as another baby
monitor in the neighbourhood. Set both units to a different
channel. Make sure they are both set to the same channel.
Why does the baby unit not
switch to dial-up mode?
If the display shows Ç, you probably forgot to insert the
telephone cable in the appropriate socket or did not insert the
cable properly. Insert the cable properly. If the baby unit is
connected properly to the telephone line, the display shows Å.
Why does the baby unit fail
to dial a telephone number?
You did not select the dial-up mode. Use the MODE button to
select dial-up mode.
