Why does the parent unit react too quickly to
other sounds?
• The baby unit also picks up other sounds than
those of your baby. Move the baby unit closer
to the baby (but observe the minimum distance
of 1 metre/3.5 feet).
Why does the parent unit make a buzzing
sound?
• Interference may occur when the parent unit
is out of range of the baby unit. Interference
may also occur if there are too many walls or
ceilings between the parent unit and the baby
unit or when other 2.4GHz wireless devices are
switched on (e.g. microwave, Wi-Fi router). Put
the parent unit in a different place, closer to the
baby unit, or switch off other wireless devices.
• The rechargeable battery of the parent unit
may need to be charged.
Operating time/operating range
The specified operating range of the baby
monitor is up to 150 metres/490 feet outdoors
and up to 30 metres/98 feet indoors. Why
does my baby monitor manage a much smaller
distance than that?
• The specified operating range of 150 metres
(490 feet) is only valid outdoors in open air
and in the line of sight. Depending on the
surroundings and other disturbing factors,
the operating range may be smaller. Inside
your house, the operating range is limited by
the number and type of walls and/or ceilings
between the parent unit and the baby unit
The operating time of the parent unit is
supposed to be at least 5.5 hours. Why is
the operating time of my parent unit shorter?
• When the parent unit has been charged for the
first time, the operating time is shorter because
the battery has not reached its full capacity
yet. The rechargeable battery only reaches its
full capacity after four discharging and charging
cycles. After this, the operating time is 5.5 hours
if the voice activation is not deactivated and
7 hours if the voice activation mode is activated.
• The parent unit consumes a lot of energy when
the video display is switched on continuously.
Activate the voice activation mode to increase
the operating time (see chapter 'Features',
section 'Voice activation').
• The volume of the parent unit may be set too
high, which causes the parent unit to consume
a lot of energy. Decrease the volume of the
parent unit
• As any other rechargeable electronic device,
the battery capacity decreases after a long
period of usage. If you have any questions you
can always contact consumer care. To purchase
a new rechargeable battery, visit our Philips
online shop www.shop.philips.com/service.
Why do I get interference on the parent unit?
• Interference may occur when the parent unit
is out of range of the baby unit. Interference
may also occur if there are too many walls or
ceilings between the parent unit and the baby
unit or when other 2.4GHz wireless devices are
switched on (e.g. microwave, Wi-Fi router). Put
the parent unit in a different place, closer to the
baby unit, or switch off other wireless devices.
