Question Answer
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 electrical 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 specifi ed operating
range of the baby monitor
is 330 meters/1000 feet.
Why does my baby monitor
manage a much smaller
distance than that?
The specifi ed 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
meters/150 feet.
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.
What happens during a
power failure?
If the parent unit is suffi ciently 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 at least 24 hours. Why
is the operating time of my
parent unit shorter?
When the parent unit has been charged for the fi rst time, the operating
time is less than 24 hours. The rechargeable battery pack only reaches its
full capacity after you have charged and discharged it 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 doesn’t the battery
symbol appear on the
display of the parent unit
when I start to recharge the
parent unit?
It may take a few minutes before the battery symbol appears on the
display of the parent unit when you charge the parent for the fi rst time
or after a long period of disuse.
