Question
Why do the non-
rechargeable batteries of
the baby unit run low
quickly?
Why does the charging
time of the parent unit
exceed 8 hours?
The specified operating
range of the baby monitor
is 1000 feet/330 meters.
Why does my baby
monitor manage a much
smaller distance than that?
Why is the connection lost
every now and then? Why
are there sound
interruptions?
What happens during a
power failure?
Is my baby monitor secure
from eavesdropping and
interference?
The operating time of the
parent unit is supposed to
be at least 24 hours. Why
is the operating time of my
parent unit shorter?
Answer
The microphone sensitivity level of the baby unit may be set too
high, which causes the baby unit to transmit more often. Decrease
the microphone sensitivity level with the SENSITIVITY button on
the parent unit.
The volume on the baby unit may be set too high, which causes the
baby unit to consume a lot of energy. Decrease the volume of the
baby unit.
Perhaps you have switched on the nightlight. If you want to use the
nightlight, we advise you to run the baby unit on electrical power.
The parent unit may be switched on during charging. Switch off the
parent unit during charging.
The specified range is only valid outdoors in open air. Inside your
house, the operating range is limited by the number and type of
walls and/or ceilings in between. Inside the house, the operating
range is up to 50 meters/150 feet.
The baby unit and the parent unit are probably close to the outer
limits of the operating range. Try a different location or decrease the
distance between the units. Please note that it takes about 30
seconds each time before a connection between the units is
established.
If the parent unit is sufficiently charged, it continues to operate
during a power failure, both connected to and disconnected from
the adapter. If there are batteries in the baby unit, it also continues
to operate during a power failure.
The DECT technology of this baby monitor guarantees no
interference from other equipment and no eavesdropping.
When the parent unit has been charged for the first time, the
operating time is less than 24 hours. The rechargeable battery pack
only reaches its full capacity after you have charged and discharged
it at least four times.
