Using a handset as a
room monitor
If the room monitor is activated, a previ-
ously saved destination number is called
as soon as a set noise level is reached. You
can save an internal or external number in
your handset as the destination number.
The room monitor call to an external
number stops after around 90 seconds.
The room monitor call to an internal
number (handset) stops after approx.
3 minutes (depending on the base sta-
tion). When the room monitor is activated,
all keys are locked except the end call key.
The handset's speaker is muted.
When the room monitor is activated,
incoming calls to the handset are indi-
cated without a ringer melody and are
only shown on the screen. The display and
keypad are not illuminated and advisory
tones are also turned off.
If you accept an incoming call, the room
monitor mode is suspended for the dura-
tion of the call, but the function remains
activated.
The room monitor mode is retained if you
turn the handset off and on again.
Caution!
– You should always check the operation
of the room monitor before use. For
example, test its sensitivity. Check the
connection if you are diverting the room
monitor to an outside number.
– When the function is activated the hand-
set's operating time is severely reduced.
If necessary, place the handset in the
charging cradle. This ensures that the
batteries do not run down.
– Ideally the handset should be positioned 1
to 2 metres away from the baby. The micro-
phone must be directed towards the baby.
– The connection to which the room monitor
is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-
vated answer machine.
