Sensitivity
This option in the parent unit menu allows you to set the microphone sensitivity of the baby unit.
The microphone sensitivity determines what noise level the baby unit picks up, e.g. you will want to
hear when your baby cries, but you may be less interested in its babbling.
1 Select 'Sensitivity' in the menu with the + and - buttons and press OK to confirm.
2 Use the + and - buttons to increase or decrease the microphone sensitivity. The number of
filled segments shows the sensitivity level selected. Press OK to confirm the setting.
Sensitivity levels and indications

eco Max mode
Smart Eco is a standard feature on this baby monitor. It automatically reduces the DECT signal from
the baby unit to save energy. To save even more energy, activate the Eco Max mode. In this mode,
the DECT signal of the baby unit is switched off as long as the baby does not make a sound.
Caution: In Eco Max mode, the parent unit receives feedback from the baby unit with a delay.
When your baby makes a sound, the baby unit first has to reactivate radio transmission before it
can send feedback to the parent unit.
Please note the following:
- In Eco Max mode you do not receive feedback when the parent unit is out of range of the baby
unit. You can check the link by pressing any button on the parent unit.
- The Eco Max mode cannot be activated if the microphone sensitivity is set to level 4.
