are fully charged.
> When the batteries are fully charged, the parent unit can be
taken out of the charging base and used cordlessly for at
least 8 hours.
Notes:
– Operation time will be 8 hours based on the assumption that
the baby unit will be transmitting 25% of the time and is in
standby mode for the rest of the time (baby does not any
make sound).
– When the parent unit batteries are charged for the first time,
operating time will be less than 8 hours.The batteries will use
their maximum capacity after at least four times charging and
discharging.
– Charging will take longer than 16 hours when the parent unit
is switched on during charging.To shorten the charging time,
the parent unit should be switched off.
The parent unit is now ready for use!
General notes:
– When the units are switched off, in case of battery operated
use, the batteries still discharge slowly.
– When the batteries are almost empty, the battery check light
of the parent unit (B-6) starts blinking red; the battery check
light of the baby unit (A-8) lights up red continuously.
Place the parent unit in the charging base (B-14) to recharge
the batteries and/or replace the batteries in the baby unit.
