FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Why does the BM-02 Nanny trigger an alarm when the baby is breathing regularly?
Cause:
There is not suffi cient contact between the sensor pad and the movement of the baby's body while the baby
is breathing.
Solution:
Babies up to 3 months are small in weight and do not change their position in the crib; therefore, you should
place the sensor pad directly under the sheet, towel or blanket on which the baby is lying. This minimizes the
possible occurrence of false alarms. As soon as the baby starts to move around the crib, install the sensor
pad under the mattress.
If the baby is lying with her head supported (when a doctor suggests that her head be higher than her
body), good mechanical contact between the baby, the mattress and the sensor pad must be maintained.
Underlay the bed frame (not only the mattress) to comply with the condition in the previous sentence. Al-
ternatively, support the back legs of the crib.
Make sure that the mattress applies its entire weight on the sensor pad. The mattress must not be fi tted
between the crib walls too tightly so that it does not get caught above the bed frame.
2. Why doesn't the alarm go off after the baby's been taken out of the crib?
Cause:
The sensor pad can detect various vibrations, for instance:
People walking around the crib which stands on a parquet or laminate fl oor. The crib legs must be suppor-
ted with an anti-vibration underlay – e.g. carpet pieces.
An open window nearby the crib in windy weather. These interferences must be eliminated to ensure the
Nanny's proper operation.
The crib leans on a fridge or another source of vibrations. Move the crib.
3. How should the BM-02 Nanny be used when monitoring twins?
Solution:
Each twin must have her own crib and the cribs must not touch each other. Each baby must have its own
Nanny; i.e. an independent monitor. Do not connect two separate pads to one evaluation unit as this would
jeopardize the babies' lives.
4. Can the Nanny be used in a pram, cradle or Moses basket?
Solution:
Yes, but only on the condition that the pram is not moving and that nobody touches it. It must be parked in
a quiet windless place – i.e. not outside, on a porch, etc. The wind can have a negative impact on the Nanny
and may prevent the alarm from being activated should the baby stop breathing. The same applies to cradles
and Moses baskets.
5. Why does the device give a low battery warning immediately after being switched on?
Solution:
Make sure you haven't used so-called rechargeable batteries (Their voltage is lower and the device evaluates
this condition as low batteries.). Only alkaline batteries can be used.
6. Why doesn't the device react to the baby's movement properly anymore?
Cause:
Make sure that the supply cable or its connector is not damaged. If the cable is not attached to the crib as
described in this manual it can be pulled by the baby and damaged. Another possible cause is the careless
handling of the sensor pad (it being dropped on the fl oor, etc.).
