Answer
Perhaps the baby unit is not connected to the mains. Connect the baby unit
to the mains. Then set the on/off switch of the baby unit upwards to the ON
position to establish connection with the parent unit.
Perhaps the adapter is not plugged in properly. Make sure the adapter is
plugged into the wall socket properly.
The parent unit may already be fully charged. The battery status light will be
green when the battery is fully charged and the device is connected to the
mains power.
The baby unit does not have a charging function. The baby unit only works
when it is connected to the mains.
The baby unit and the parent unit are probably close to the outer limits
of the operating range or there is interference from other 2.4 GHz wireless
devices. Try a different location, decrease the distance between the units
or switch off other 2.4 GHz wireless devices (laptops, mobile phones,
microwaves, etc) . It can take up to 10 seconds before the connection
between the units is reestablished.
If the signal is lost, then the parent unit will make a beeping sound (3 quick
beeps every 20 seconds).
The baby and parent unit might be too close to each other, keep them at
least 1.5 meters/ 5 feet away from each other to prevent interference.
As the parent unit works on a rechargeable battery, the parent unit
continues to work if the battery is sufficiently charged. However, the baby
unit stops working because it has no rechargeable battery and only works
on a mains power. The parent unit will give a beeping sound to indicate that
the link with the baby unit is lost.
When mains power is restored, the connection between the parent unit and
the baby unit will automatically be established.
The parent unit may be switched on during charging. Switch off the parent
unit during charging to reduce the charging time. When the display of the
parent unit is constantly on, charging of the parent unit will take more time.
Perhaps temperature has exceeded the charging tolerance that could
potentially cut off the charging circuit as a safety protection mechanism. To
resume charging, move the charging station away from any heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stove or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
