the Sensor Pad to a new location to ensure sensitivity is adjusted correctly to the new padding or mattress. Refer to the
movement sensitivity adjustment section.
The Sensor Pad works with all baby bed sizes and all mattresses, except memory foam mattresses or mattresses with a hollow
frame.
1. TEST THE SOUND
Make sure the sound mode is ON. Have someone else speak into the Nursery Unit or place a radio near the Nursery Unit. You
should hear sound from the Parent Unit . If there is no sound, refer to the Troubleshooting section.
2. TEST YOUR MONITOR TO DETECT MOVEMENT
Make sure the Sensor Pad's cord is plugged into the Nursery Unit then turn both units ON. Make sure the movement function
is ON. Gently move your hand on the mattress. The pendulum symbol will move with your every movement. Remove your hand
from the mattress. Due to the lack of movement, a pre-alarm "Tic" sound will be emitted after 15 seconds and 5 seconds later,
the alarm will sound.
3. TEST STOPPING THE ALARM
To stop the alarm, place your hand lightly on the mattress so that the Sensor Pad starts detecting movement again. The
pendulum icon on the Parent Unit will start moving again, as movement is detected by the Sensor Pad. You may also press
the alarm icon on the Parent Unit , press the push button on top of the Nursery Unit or shut the Nursery Unit OFF to stop the
alarm.
NOTE: If the alarm does not sound, the Sensor Pad may be detecting a continuous vibration from the floor, a strong draft or
the crib being touched. Avoid contact with the crib when the monitor is in use. Place the crib near a solid supporting wall and
away from strong air currents. The Sensor Pad sensitivity may need to be reduced, consult the movement sensitivity
adjustment section.
4. VERIFYING THE BATTERY MODE
Verify that the battery mode is functional by operating both units without the AC adapters. If the green light on the Nursery
Unit does not light up, the batteries need to be replaced. If the Parent Unit doesn't light up and the screen does not appear,
it needs to be recharged.
