OPERATION (fig. 4)
Transmitter
• Make sure the mains power adapter is
connected correctly, or batteries are installed.
• Place the transmitter near the baby's bed,
making sure that the microphone is placed in
the best position for picking up baby's sounds.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that the transmitter is always out of
reach of the baby; never place the transmitter
inside baby's bed or playpen!
• Switch the transmitter on using the ON/OFF
switch (fig. 1.4) .
– The red POWER LED lights up.
– If sound is picked up by the built-in
microphone, the transmitter starts
transmitting automatically. The transmission
stops when no sound is picked up any more.
During transmission the green TRANSMIT
LED lights up.
• The Babysitter sound level can be adjusted by
turning the SENSITIVITY switch (fig. 1.5)
clock-wise to the desired microphone
sensitivity level.
– The higher the sensitivity is set, the earlier the
unit starts transmitting when your baby makes
a sound.
Receiver
• Make sure that the mains power adapter is
connected correctly, or that batteries are
installed.
– If mains power adapter is connected correctly,
the red ADAPTER LED on the standing base
lights up.
– If batteries are installed, the receiver only uses
battery power in the event of a mains failure,
or when the unit is not placed inside the
standing base.
• Place the receiver inside the standing base,
near to the parent's location.
• Switch the receiver on to an acceptable sound
level (fig. 1.2) .
– The red POWER LED lights up.
– If a sound signal is received from the
transmitter, it is heard via the built-in speaker.
• Adjust the sound level as required.
Note
Do not place transmitter and receiver too close
to each other while operating. Otherwise the
units will start resonating (giving a high-pitch
sound).

4. OPERATION

IMPORTANT!
Before using the Babysitter, check the sound
transmission to ensure that both units function
correctly. After this first check, sound
transmission should be checked on a regular
basis as follows:
• Have an adult softly speak into the
transmitter.
– Sounds transmitted from the baby room
should be heard clearly via the receiver in
another room.

CHANNEL SELECTION

– The Babysitter can use 2 different channels
for radio signal transmission. If sound
reception is very poor, please try the other
transmission channel as follows:
• Move the channel selector on both units to
the other channel (fig. 1.1 and fig. 1.3) .
Note: Always make sure the channel switches
on both units are set to the same position.
This ensures optimum reception.

ANTI-INTERFERENCE TECHNOLOGY

To reduce the reception of other signals, the unit
checks each received signal for a special code.
In this way annoying transmissions from e.g.
radio amateurs, cordless telephones or other
brands of babysitters are reduced to a minimum.
TRANSMISSION CONTROL
If the receiver is switched on, it will check that
the transmitter is still within transmission range.
If the signal is blocked, or if the baby unit is
placed out of range of the receiver for more than
30 seconds the receiver starts beeping. To stop
this beeping, try one of the following options:
• Move the receiver closer to the transmitter to
restore sound reception again.
– The maximum operating distance is 300 m. in
ideal conditions.
• Switch to the other transmission channel (see
chapter 'Channel Selection') .
• Check batteries in both transmitter and
receiver (in case batteries are low).
BELT-CLIP
When batteries are installed, the receiver can be
used as a truly cordless product. The unit can be
carried in and around the house, using the easy
belt-clip. This clip can easily be attached to and
removed from the receiver (fig. 5) .
