TAKING CARE OF YOUR RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES
• Ensure that you fully charge your batteries for 10 hours before their first use.
• To maintain maximum battery life it is recommended that you fully discharge your
batteries periodically. Battery performance can be diminished by leaving the batteries
constantly charging. If your parent unit is not in use, please turn it off.
• Inadequate battery power can impair the performance of your monitor. If you are not
happy with the performance of your Parent Unit Monitor please replace the rechargeable
batteries (2 x NiMH Rechargeable Batteries).
• It is advisable to change the batteries every 6 months.
FALSE ALARMS
• Turn OFF the Nursery Unit.
• Make sure there is no bedding between the mattress and the Sensor Pad.
• If the crib has a spring or slat base, place a hardboard between the crib base and the
Sensor Pad measuring at least 13'' x 13'' (33 x 33 cm) thick.
• Make sure Sensor Pad is positioned as described under the setup requirements.
Sensitivity may need to be adjusted, refer to Step 5.4.
ALARM WILL NOT SOUND
• Avoid contact with the crib when the monitor is ON.
• Place crib near a solid supporting wall to avoid Sensor Pad from detecting movement
from outside the crib.
• Turn OFF crib mobile, fans, loud music or anything else that may cause vibration.
• You may need to decrease the sensitivity, refer to Step 5.4.
