Battery operation
We recommend also inserting rechargeable batteries to ensure that the units remain operational in case of a power
failure. These will be automatically charged when the parent unit is connected to a power supply. The batteries take
approximately 10 hours to charge (with the device switched off ).
Attention: Only use rechargeable NiMH batteries in the parent unit. Never use non-rechargeable batteries in the
parent unit. Using unsuitable battery types poses an explosion hazard. Switch the units off and disconnect
the power lead before changing the batteries. Check the correct polarity (+/–) of the batteries (as shown
in battery compartment).
Remove the batteries from the device if you do not plan to use it for a long period of time.
Range control
This baby monitor is equipped with an optical and acoustic range control system. Baby and parent unit regularly check
mutual contact (even in standby-mode when the baby unit is not receiving any noise). If the range is exceeded, the
status LED on the parent unit will begin to flash red and green and a signal tone will sound at regular intervals.
Note:
To activate range control, ECO mode must be switched off on baby unit.
VOX and ECO modes
connection to the baby unit is established when the parent unit is switched on. This can happen if the baby unit is
in sleep mode (no signal transmission = no radiation). In order to force a signal transmission, briefly switch the baby
unit to "range alarm" or speak into the baby unit so the connection can be established.
If you operate your baby unit with batteries, no alarm signal will sound on the parent unit when the ECO mode is
activated and the batteries are flat. Please note: when the batteries are flat, the two device units are automatically
disconnected.

The baby monitor is equipped with an intelligent noise activation (VOX). If no
noises are detected in the room, the transmitter switches to minimum energy
consumption and radiation emission. As soon as the baby unit detects noises, it
activates the radio connection and transfers the data to the mobile parent unit.
As soon as you place the parent unit at a fixed site at which you have checked
reception on a previous occasion, we recommend that you switch ECO mode
on (LED 5 lights up green). In ECO mode, range control is switched off and th-
erefore in standby mode (whenever your child is quiet) the baby unit does not
emit any radiation.
CAUTION! If you operate the baby monitor in ECO mode, it may happen that no
