Keep the baby unit out of the reach of the baby. Never place the
baby unit inside the baby's bed or playpen.
- Because the cord of the baby unit presents a potential strangulation
hazard, make sure that the baby unit and its cord are at least 1 metre/3.5
feet away from your baby.
- To prevent a high-pitched sound from one or both units, make sure that
the parent unit is at least 1 metre/3.5 feet away from the baby unit.
1 Press and hold the
power-on light goes on.
2 Press and hold the
display lights up. The 'link' light on the parent unit starts flashing red and
the message 'LINKING' appears on the display.
When the parent unit and baby unit are linked, the 'link' light turns solid
green. The signal strength indicator and the message 'LINKED' appear on
the display.
If no connection is established, the message 'NOT LINKED' is displayed
and the parent unit starts and the parent unit starts to beep.
What to do if no link is established
- If the parent unit is out of range, place it closer to the baby unit, but not
closer than 1 metre/3.5 feet.
- If the baby or parent unit is too close, <2m/6.5 ft away from another
DECT appliance (e.g. a cordless phone), switch off this appliance or move
the unit away from this appliance.
- If the baby unit is switched off, switch it on.
Operating range
- The operating range is 330 metres/1000 feet outdoors and up to 50
metres/150 feet indoors.
- The operating range of the baby monitor varies depending on the
surroundings and factors that cause interference. Wet and moist
materials cause so much interference that the range loss is up to 100%.
For interference from dry materials, see the table below.
