HOW TO USE / CONNECTING THE UNITS
What happens during a

time of the parent unit
exceed 3 hours?
Why do I need to keep

cord at least 1 meter/
3.5 feet away from my
baby?
What is the difference
between the various

HOW TO USE / CONNECTING THE UNITS
As the parent unit works on a rechargeable battery, the parent unit
continues to work if the battery is sufficiently charged. However, the baby
unit stops working because it has no rechargeable battery and only works
on a mains power. The parent unit will give a beeping sound to indicate that
the link with the baby unit is lost.
When mains power is restored, the connection between the parent unit and
the baby unit will automatically be established.
The parent unit may be switched on during charging. Switch off the parent
unit during charging to reduce the charging time. When the display of the
parent unit is constantly on, charging of the parent unit will take more time.
To avoid strangulation with the cord and for optimal sound detection,
always place the baby unit and its cord at least 1 meter / 3.5 feet away from
the baby.
See below list for an explanation on the available modes on your baby
monitor.
* Video mode: the screen and sound of the parent unit are always on.
* Audio mode: only audio will be activated. The display of the parent unit
switches off when AUDIO mode is activated. The link light shows that the
parent unit is still on and connected to the baby unit. The sound level lights
above the screen will light up green when sound from the baby unit is
heard. All normal correspondence with the baby unit is possible via the talk
back, lullaby, menu and sensitivity buttons.
* VOX mode: The display and sound of the parent unit switch off if there
is no sound detected for 20 seconds (or not enough sound above the
sensitivity setting). Both display and sound will be activated immediately
when your baby cries and the sensitivity threshold is passed. When the
sound drops below the sound threshold, the video will remain active for 20
seconds. When one of the control buttons is pressed (brightness or volume),
the device shall display video for roughly 5 seconds. Also the lullaby menu
is accessible.
* ECO mode: The display and sound of the parent unit switch off when no
sound is detected for 20 seconds. Eco Mode reduces power consumption
during quiet times while keeping you connected to your baby. In ECO
mode the ECO LED light is green and the device will operate on a different
connection modus. In ECO mode the parent unit uses the 2 seconds
ping mechanism to check the connection with the baby unit instead of a
continuous radio frequency connection. Therefore the Baby Unit will also
consume less energy in ECO mode.
