Installation
Place the sensor pad on the bed bottom as shown in the diagram. Place
1.
the mattress on the sensor pad and be sure that the sensor is well positioned
with the mattress using the following guidelines:
•
Center of the sensor pad should be approximately in the position of where the
baby's chest will be
•
Pad should be on a smooth & solid surface – It should not be bent!!.
•
If there is only a spring grid supporting the bed, place a solid board (wood,
plywood etc.) between the pad and the spring grid.
•
If you want to use the Nanny in multiple beds, use extra sensor pads (item number
BM-01D). Install them in each bed and change only the location of the control unit.
•
Up to two sensor pads can be used in each bed with a single control unit if the
child is large.
Connecting batteries to the control unit (battery compartment is on the rear
2.
side of the control unit):
•
Use only 2 new size AA alkaline batteries.
•
Polarity of the batteries is clearly marked in the battery compartment.
•
Close the battery cover and turn the switch to position I.
•
If the batteries are OK, you will hear a beep and the indicators will flash.
•
Switch the unit OFF again (position 0)
•
If there is no beep after turning ON, check the batteries.
Attaching the control unit to the bed – using the fastening belt
3.
•
The unit should be visible and should not by covered by anything
•
For bigger children we recommend to locate the unit out of their reach
Connecting the sensor's cable to the unit – you should hear a click
4.
•
Route the cable in such a way that there is no slack long enough to make a loop.
For bigger children the cable should be out of their reach
•
If you do not use the entire length of the cable, fix the excess firmly under the
mattress.
•
If you position the control unit in another room, use the extension cable (5m),
which is provided with the set. Only one extension cable can be used.
•
If you use two sensor pads in a bed, a cable splitter is provided in the set.
•
To disconnect the cable from the unit – press the connector tab towards the cable

Operation
A. Put the baby to bed.
B. Turn on the unit (confirmed by a beep and a flash of all LED indicators)
C. The green led indicator will flashes as the baby breathes or moves
D. Turn off the unit before you take the baby out of the bed.
ALARM
If the baby is not breathing for longer than 20 seconds, or the breath rate is too slow, an
alarm signal will sound and the red indicator will flash.
Check the baby and provide first aid if necessary (make sure that there are no reasons
for choking, start resuscitation, call for emergency help). In some cases of Apnea the sound of
the unit itself can wake the baby up and he/she will start to breath again on his/her own.
Alarm can be stopped by the switching the unit off.
There may be rare cases of false alarms, especially when the child is crawling and moves
off the sensor pad.
Testing
You can test function of the Nanny in the following way (should be tested once a week):
1. If the baby is in the bed and the unit is ON, the green indicator should flash as the
baby is breathing or moving.
2. Leave the unit ON and take the baby out of the bed.
•
The green indicator may continue to blink for a certain time (vibrations of
the bed caused by the baby's removal)
•
Do not hold or touch the bed – the device may detect your breathing
3. When the flashing has stopped for 20 seconds, the unit will make warning beeps and will
start the alarm sound
•
The red indicator should flash when the alarm is triggered.
•
Stop alarm by turning the switch on the unit OFF.
If the device does not work as described above, check that:
•
There is a beep after switching it on. If not, check the batteries.
•
After taking the baby out of the bed the green indicator stops flashing (within a
minute or so) – if not, the device is detecting some intrusive vibrations – see
following warning.
Important warning:
•
The Nanny is a very sensitive instrument, capable of sensing a sleeping baby's
breathing. Intrusive vibrations of the bed, the floor or the entire building can influence
its performance. The bed should not be in physical contact with another bed (which
is used by another person or animal) or with any device that generates vibrations.
Intrusive vibrations can also be caused by a powerful air movement (fan, air-
conditioning...), by walking close the bed and by other sources. If you move the bed
to a new location, you should test the Nanny before you use it.
