Important safety notices

  1. Your baby monitor is designed as just an aid. It isn't a substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision.
  2. Make sure all cables and units are out of your baby's reach – at least one metre away.
  3. Never cover either unit, put them in moist places or inside the cot, bed or playpen.
  4. If you travel abroad, check the voltage on your unit's plugs match the local power output.
  5. Do not take the product apart. If you need repairs, get in touch with our helpdesk.

Getting set up

  1. Plug the cable into the Parent unit, then plug it into the mains power socket and switch the socket on.

When the battery gets very low, it'll take about 30 minutes to charge enough for you to use it for a short time. To charge the Parent unit in the shortest amount of time, turn it off while it's charging.

    Before you do, move the Parent unit at least one metre from the Baby unit. Any closer and you might get audio feedback sounds.

Troubleshooting

My Parent/Baby unit isn't working. What should I do?
Check that:

  1. power cables are plugged in and switched on at the wall socket
  2. the Baby unit is plugged in and the Parent unit battery is fully charged (for 12 hours)
  3. both units are turned on
  4. the Parent unit isn't too far from the Baby unit (large obstructions or other electrical devices might affect the signal between the Parent and Baby unit).
  5. unplugging the power cables, waiting about 15 seconds, and then plugging them back in can help.

My Parent/Baby unit is making a high-pitched noise. What should I do?
The units might be too close together. Make sure they're at least one metre apart, even when you're using the button.

Why is my Parent unit beeping?
The Parent unit beeps when:

  • the Baby unit is turned off
  • the units are too far apart – try moving them closer together (but not closer than one metre)
  • the battery in the Parent unit isn't charged – try charging it for 12 hours
  • Other electronic items, like TVs and mobile phones, are causing interference – try moving the Baby unit away from things like that.

Why is the Parent unit not making any sounds even though there's noise coming from my baby's room?

  • the Parent unit might not be fully charged – make sure it's charged (for 12 hours).
  • the speaker volume might be switched off.
  • the Parent unit might be out of range of the Baby unit – try moving it closer (but not closer than one metre).
  • large obstructions or other electrical devices might be affecting the signal between the Parent and Baby units). Try moving the Baby unit away from obstructions, including electrical appliances like TVs or mobile phones.
