Why is the connection lost every now and then?
Why are there sound interruptions?
• The baby unit and the parent unit are probably
close to the outer limits of the operating
range. Try a different location or decrease the
distance between the units. Please note that
it takes about 30 seconds each time before a
connection between the units is established.
• You may have placed the parent unit next to a
transmitter or other DECT appliance, such as
a DECT telephone or other 1.8Ghz/1.9Ghz
baby monitor. Move the parent unit away from
the other appliances until the connection is
re-established.
What happens during a power failure?
• If the parent unit is sufficiently charged,
it continues to operate during a power failure,
both inside and outside the charger. If there are
batteries in the baby unit, it also continues to
operate during a power failure.
Is my baby monitor secure from eavesdropping
and interference?
• The DECT technology of this baby monitor
guarantees no interference from other
equipment and no eavesdropping.
The operating time of the parent unit is
supposed to be up to 24 hours. Why is
the operating time of my parent unit shorter?
• When the parent unit has been charged for
the first time, the operating time is less than
24 hours. The rechargeable batteries only reach
their full capacity after you have charged and
discharged them at least four times.
• The volume of the parent unit may be set too
high, which causes the parent unit to consume
a lot of energy. Decrease the volume of the
parent unit
• The microphone sensitivity level of the baby
unit may be set too high, which causes the
parent unit to consume a lot of energy.
Decrease the microphone sensitivity level in
the menu of the parent unit.
Why do the non-rechargeable batteries of the
baby unit run low quickly?
• The microphone sensitivity level of the baby
unit may be set too high, which causes the
baby unit to transmit more often. Decrease the
microphone sensitivity level in the menu of the
parent unit.
• The volume on the baby unit may be set too
high, which causes the baby unit to consume a
lot of energy. Decrease the volume of the baby
unit.
• You may have set a maximum room
temperature that is lower than the actual room
temperature or a minimum room temperature
that is higher than the actual room temperature.
The baby unit continues to send data to the
parent unit and therefore uses more power.This
causes the non-rechargeable batteries of the
baby unit to run low quickly.
• Perhaps you have switched on the nightlight. If
you want to use the nightlight, we advise you to
run the baby unit on mains power.
Why does the charging time of the parent unit
exceed 8 hours?
• The parent unit may be switched on during
charging. Switch off the parent unit during charging.
The specified operating range of the baby
monitor is 330 metres/1000 feet. Why does my
baby monitor manage a much smaller distance
than that?
• The specified range is only valid outdoors in
open air. Inside your house, the operating range
is limited by the number and type of walls and/
or ceilings in between. Inside the house, the
operating range is up to 50 metres/150 feet.
• The ECO mode is switched on. When you
operate the baby unit in ECO mode, the
operating range is 260 meters/800 feet in open
air. Inside your house, the operating range is
limited by the number and type of walls and/or
ceilings in between. Move the parent unit closer
to the baby unit or switch off the ECO mode.
