Dear Carer,
Thank you for purchasing the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor. You have taken the
right step towards ensuring the safe and undisturbed sleep for your baby and hopefully for
you as well! The Baby Control Digital connuously monitors your baby’s breathing
movement rate whilst your baby is in his in cot, crib or pram.
We hope that you will be completely sased with your Baby Control Digital breathing monitor.
Your Baby Control Digital Team
Introducon
Why is it important that parents use the breathing monitor?
During their rst year of life, infants are at risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) which is described as
a sudden and unexpected death of an otherwise healthy child.
Children under one year of age have irregular breathing paerns, and may even stop breathing.
The breathing monitor is the only device that is able to connuously monitor the characterisc breathing
movements of your baby whilst he is lying in a cot, crib or pram, and can provide an early warning of a
potenally dangerous situaon. It may then prevent sudden infant death syndrome from occurring. If the
parent detects the suspension of breathing (apnea) in me and is able to respond appropriately and restore
breathing, the baby is likely to be saved.
Using the breathing monitor is the most ecient way of prevenng SIDS. The Baby Control Digital breathing
monitor can save a life, but it is not a life-saving device.
Descripon of funcons of the Baby Control Digital
breathing monitor (BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
1. The Baby Control Digital connuously monitors the breathing of a baby sleeping in his cot, crib or pram etc.
2. The sensor pad is placed directly on to the base of the cot under the maress and senses the baby’s breathing movements.
Informaon is then passed to the control unit to evaluate the measured values.
3. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor connuously detects breathing movements, if it is unable to detect breathing
for twelve seconds it triggers an audible alarm. The detecon sensivity threshold can be adjusted (see “Adjusng the
detecon sensivity threshold”)
4. The Baby Control Digital is not able to intervene when it is unable to detect breathing movements but it is designed to
alert you to a possible serious situaon. Only a person who has undergone a dedicated training course is able to give
arcial respiraon and perform resuscitaon. Please ask your doctor for advice.
IMPORTANT: Please regularly check the funconality of your Baby Control Digital breathing monitor.
Please contact your distributor if your device does not appear to be funconing properly.

Features of the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
1. Detecon is accomplished through the maress
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor has no direct contact with your baby. Its use does not interfere with normal
daily life of the family and their baby. It is discreet and easy to use.
2. Uniquely large monitored area
The size of one sensor pad is 300 x 500 mm. Depending on the model, the Baby Control Digital breathing monitors have
either one, two, three or four (twin type) sensor pads. The device with three sensor pads is able to monitor the enre
surface of most baby cots. Concerns that your baby may move outside the monitored areas can be reduced by using
addional sensor pads.
3. Variable placing of sensor pads
You may place the sensor pad in the baby’s temporary bed as well; just take the control unit with it.
4. Lateral sensivity
Even if the baby is not lying directly over the sensor pad, the device is able to detect breathing movements coming from
the side, so do not be concerned about insucient monitoring.
5. It can be used with all maress and cot frame types
The sensor pad of the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is placed directly on the base of the bed and can be safely
used with any standard maress no maer how thick it is or what material it is made from.
6. Digitally adjustable detecon threshold level
With only a few clicks of a buon, it is possible to adjust the detecon level threshold of the baby’s breathing movements,
to best suit the environment that the baby’s cot is in.
7. Digital representaon of the breathing movement intensity
You can watch the intensity of your baby’s breathing movements on a scale from 0 to 9 on the illuminated display that is
also clearly visible in the dark Thus it is possible to check with just one look, whether the Baby Control Digital breathing
monitor is appropriately adjusted for your baby’s breathing.
8. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is able to play back events of the last nine minutes in one-minute steps
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor will play back the recorded events from its digital memory, which may provide
important informaon on the details of any breathing suspension.
9. Double (safety) Alarm
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is equipped with a safety double alarm.
10. Baery voltage monitoring
If the baery voltage is low, the device will signal that the baery needs replacing when it is switched on.
11. Two-years warranty
There is a full two year warranty on this product. However, the warranty is invalidated if the monitor has been used or
treated inappropriately.

How to use the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230)
1. Detach the outer plasc cover (4) from the control unit (8). The parts are not screwed together and can be pulled apart
carefully.
2. Insert two alkaline AA baeries (do not use rechargeable baeries) into the baery compartment (5) inside the control unit
(8). Make sure the baeries are in the marked +/– direcon.
3. Subsequently, the condion of baeries and control unit (8) are automacally tested. You will hear an acousc signal from
the speaker (3) twice and the green indicator light (6) ashes once and the red indicator light (7) ashes twice.
4. Aach the outer plasc cover (4) to the control unit (8).
5. Connect the sensor pad cable (11) to the socket (9 or 10) located on the side of the control unit (8). The sensor pad (11) can
be connected to any of the sockets (9 or 10).
6. Place the sensor pad (11) evenly on the base of the cot approximately located underneath where the baby’s chest is likely
to be and place the maress over it. Never bend, fold or roll the sensor pads!
7. Aach the control unit (8) to the baby’s cot using the Velcro straps. The Baby Control Digital cable must be secured so that
the baby cannot pull it. The best way to do this is to wind it around one of the cot bars.
8. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is now ready for operaon.
INFORMATION: When one sensor pad is used (BC-200 type), we recommend placing it under the maress
lengthwise for safety reasons; when two and more sensor pads are used (BC-210 and BC-230 types), place them
crosswise. If all three sensor pads are needed (BC-230 type), connect them to the control unit using the
T-connecon (included with the package). If the baby is already able to move around, the use of two or three
sensor pads is advised, even though one sensor pad would t the baby. It may happen that the baby moves o
one sensor pad during sleep and so the other pad can take over the sensing funcon.
Baby Control Digital 6

IMPORTANT: In rare cases, especially with low weight babies or babies lying on their sides, it may occur that
the sensor pad senses poorly and the displayed measured value is oen below the pre-set threshold level of
detecon. A temporary soluon may be to readjust the threshold level of detecon (see “Adjusng the
detecon sensivity”).
Switching ON/OFF your Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230)
1. Press and hold the ON/OFF buon (1) for 2 seconds. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor will not switch on if held
for a shorter period than 2 seconds.
2. The pre-set sensivity will ash on the display (2) ve mes. The factory seng is “3“.
3. Then the numerical values - “0” = no movement, “1” to “9” = there is any movement - will repeatedly ash on the
display (2).
4. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is now switched on and ready for operaon.
5. The green indicator light (6) ashes when the intensity of movements reaches or exceeds the pre-set sensivity level for
detecon.
6. The red indicator light (7) will start to ash following a short audible signal from the speaker (3), if a dangerous situaon
occurs (see “Alarm status of Baby Control Digital breathing monitor”).
7. Aer the alarm signal is acvated, you can stop the alarm by pressing the ON/OFF buon (1) once. The control unit (8) is
switched o.
8. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor can be switched o by pressing the ON/OFF buon (1) twice in succession. Aer
the rst press the display (2) shows“-” and if you press the ON/OFF buon (1) again within 5 seconds, Baby Control Digital
switches o with two short audible signals. If you do not press the ON/OFF buon again within 5 seconds, the monitor stays
on and returns to normal operaon.
IMPORTANT: The display of the Baby Control Digital may show values 1 – 9 even if there is no movement or
the sensor pads are disconnected. This is not an error, the device is only adjusng to surrounding condions.
INFORMATION: When switched o, the device does not consume any electricity, so it is not necessary to
remove baeries when used daily. If the device is not going to be used for a long period of me, take the alkaline
AA baeries out of the baery compartment (5).
Baby Control Digital 7
Operaon of the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230)
The numerical display (2) will show the intensity of breathing movements detected by the Baby Control Digital approximately
every 2.5 seconds (9 - the most intensive, 1 - the least intensive, 0 - no movement detected). At the same me the green
indicator light (6) will ash if the intensity of detected movement reaches or exceeds the pre-set threshold value.
It is therefore possible to check even from a distance whether the device has detected a movement that is intensive enough.
An audible warning signal will sound from the speaker (3) and the red indicator light (7) start to ash when the measured
value does not reach the pre-set threshold level four mes in succession (12 seconds). Then the alarm is acvated. If the
measured value is very low or equal to zero, it is likely that the maress placed on the sensor pad is extremely thick or the
baby is lying close to the edge of the sensor pad (11). Please change this to avoid false alarms.

IMPORTANT: For the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor operaon it is very important to adjust the
threshold level of detecon, i.e. the value between 1 and 9 to be aained by the breathing movement of the
baby. Typically, the value 3 is used (factory seng). You may change the seng in certain situaons
(see “Adjusng the detecon sensivity threshold”).
Adjusng the detecon level threshold
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
IMPORTANT: The factory seng for the detecon threshold level is 3. This value is opmal for babies up unl
one year of age. Please only change it if you are jusably required to.
The detecon threshold level of the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor can be set to one of nine threshold levels. It
may be necessary to increase or decrease it according to the individual situaon. Please bear in mind that by decreasing the
detecon threshold level, the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor will become more sensive to false vibraons from
the surroundings, while its increase may make it more dicult to detect weak breathing movements! Therefore tests must
be performed several mes and very carefully aer the threshold level has been adjusted (see “Tesng”). Special aenon
must be paid to appliances eming permanent vibraons, such as air condioning equipment, refrigerators, etc. If another
value than 0 is ashing on the display and the baby is not in the cot, the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is detecng
vibraons from some source in its surroundings. In such cases do not use it unl the source of vibraons is found and
removed.
The jused case for changing the detecon threshold level is e.g. When the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor without
the baby’s presence shows any value higher than 0 due to vibraons and it is not possible to prevent the vibraons from
occurring (e.g. heavy trac in the street). In such cases please set the detecon threshold level 2 levels above the highest
value caused by such a disturbance. You must be aware that by increasing the detecon threshold level (decreasing the
sensivity) will mean that the Baby Control Digital will not respond to ny breathing movements of the baby which may
increase the probability of false alarms. This is the main problem with low weight babies, whose breathing movements are
weak even under normal condions.
Somemes, it may become necessary to set the detecon threshold to level 2 or 1, especially in the case of premature babies
with low weight; however one should proceed with great care when seng at these levels so that vibraons coming from
the surroundings do not inuence the sensing. This may be checked on the display when the device is switched on and the
baby is not lying in the bed! In the absence of the baby, Baby Control Digital breathing monitor must sound an alarm under
normal condions.
How to readjust the detecon threshold level
1. Switch o the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor using ON/OFF buon (1) and wait for 5 seconds.
2. Then press the ON/OFF buon (1) and hold for 20 seconds. The display (2) will show the actual value of the threshold
detecon level (1 to 9); then the leers “P”– “L”. Wait unl the leers “L” –“E”are displayed.
3. Release the ON/OFF buon (1) when “L”- “E” (LEVEL) has appeared. Numbers “1” to “9” slowly appear on the
display (2) (the sequence is displayed three mes in succession).
4. Press briey the ON/OFF buon (1) when your desired level of detecon threshold appears on the display (2). Thus the
new detecon threshold level is stored. This new value will quickly ash several mes on the display (2) and the device
is restored to normal operaon.
Baby Control Digital 8

IMPORTANT: Always repeat the tesng aer the readjustment of threshold level of detecon has been carried
out.
Condions for the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
to Alarm (BC-200, BC-210, BC-230)
1. The breathing movements detected on the sensor pad (11) are four mes in succession lower (12 seconds) than the pre-set
detecon threshold level.
2. The red indicator light (7) starts ashing and simultaneously four warning audible signals sound from the speaker (3).
(If the detecon of breathing movements is restored during this phase, the Baby Control Digital connues its normal
operaon.)
3. The alarm is triggered! The display (2) shows the leers “H”–“E”–“L”–“P”.
4. The alarm sounds unl you press the ON/OFF buon (1). Then the device switches o.
5. The alarm occurs even when the signal from any of sensor pads (11) is received again.
6. In the case of any alarm you must check whether it was false or not (false alarms can be caused by the maress being too
thick or the baby moving outside the sensor pad’s detecon area).
INFORMATION: Consult your baby’s doctor as to how to deal with such situaon. Take part in training where
advice is given together with praccal exercises. This is the only way to acquire the skills that are essenal when
restoraon of breathing is needed.
IMPORTANT: In the case of a true alarm, check immediately whether the airways are not obstructed by any
foreign body or vomit. If so, try to remove the foreign body from the baby’s mouth or nose and call the
emergency services! If you see no foreign body in the airways, immediately start with the restoraon of
breathing based on knowledge gained on a training course. If you have not aended any such training, call a
suitably qualied person who is able to perform rst aid to restore breathing. Do not panic in danger. It is very
important to keep cool, because any hasty acon may lead to irrevocable damage! One must be psychologically
prepared for an occurrence of such an event and know exactly what to do.
Baby Control Digital 9
Event memory of Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor features a 9 minute event memory which records the events of last 9 minutes
before the switch-o (both numbers on the display and acousc signals). These recordings may become very useful especially
when an alarm occurs as they may make it possible to gain informaon about whether your baby’s breathing paern before
the alarm was regular or not.

How to read the event memory
1. Switch o Baby Control Digital breathing monitor using ON/OFF buon (1) and wait for 5 seconds.
2. Then press the ON/OFF buon (1) and hold for 10 seconds unl leers “P” –“L” (PLAY) appear. Release the
ON/OFF buon (1).
3. The display (2) shows the minutes passed “1P”, “2P”to“9P” (max. 9 minutes). Choose how many last minutes you
want to replay.
4. When you see the required minute, press the ON/OFF buon (1). The values, which have been recorded during
this minute, will be replayed (both numbers on the display and audible signals). Replay takes place in real me,
which means that recorded values follow each other in the same way and same me as they happened while the
device had been used.
5. You may stop replaying at any me by pressing the ON/OFF buon (1). Pressing the buon once will switch Baby
Control Digital to normal mode, pressing it twice will switch it o.
6. Aer the whole recording has been played, its end is marked with a long tone and the device switches to normal
mode.
Low baery voltage of Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
Aer the Baby Control Digital is switched on by the ON/OFF buon (1) and aer the pre-set detecon threshold level ashes
ve mes on the display (2), the leer “E” will constantly ash on the display accompanied by an acousc signal. This means
that the baery voltage is low. Any voltage drop to 2.7V (1.35V per one baery) may endanger the reliable operaon of Baby
Control Digital breathing monitor. In such case do not use the device. The Baby Control Digital cannot be switched o unl
baeries are replaced. Always keep a spare set of alkaline AA baeries at home in order to ensure uninterrupted operaon.
The baery life is about 2-3 months, depending on the baery type and number of hours of operaon.
IMPORTANT: If there is a short acousc signal aer the device has been switched on and “E” ashes once on
the display, the baery will soon be depleted. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor may be safely used for
another 12 hours, however you should replace the baeries as soon as possible! The baery condion is tested
automacally every me the device is switched on.
Baby Control Digital breathing monitor must not be used with rechargeable AA baeries, because their
combined rated voltage is only 2.4V!
Tesng the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor
(BC-200, BC-210, BC-230, BC-220i, BC-230i)
To test the Baby Control Digital baby monitor perform the following tests.
Remove the baby from the cot and allow the bed and surroundings to sele for a few minutes. Switch the device on, the
pre-set threshold (default is 3) will ash on the display several mes. Then every 2.5 seconds the detected value will be
displayed on the display, with no movement this should be 0 or 1. Then gently touch the maress with your ngers and
observe the number on the display increasing. Then remove your hand and the numbers on the display will decrease back
down to 0 or 1. Once it has reached 0 or 1, wait a further 14 seconds and you will hear an audible pre alarm signal 4 mes.
If no movement is detected the alarm will sound aer 20 seconds. Test your Baby Control Digital breathing monitor at least
once or twice a week.
Baby Control Digital 10

IMPORTANT: The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is sensive to even ny mechanical vibraons coming
from the surroundings and its operaon may be inuenced by external eects (venlator, draught, nearby
refrigerator, TV, toy of baby’s elder brother or sister, dynamic walk near the cot, etc.). We recommend that you
eliminate these eects as much as possible not only for the sake of the baby’s undisturbed sleep, but also to
avoid the malfuncon of the device. If these eects cannot be completely eliminated, then perform the
tesng with increased cauon. In case of need you may decrease the sensivity of Baby Control Digital
breathing monitor so that the threshold level of detecon is adjusted in the manner described above
(see “Adjusng the detecon level threshold”).
Baby Control Digital breathing monitor – TWIN MODE
(BC-220i, BC-230i)
Characterisc features
If the appropriate condions are met, Baby Control Digital breathing monitors BC-220i and BC-230i are able to monitor the
breathing of twin (two) babies at the same me and alarm if suspension of breathing occurs in either of them. BC-220i and
BC-230i only dier in the number of sensor pads they come with (BC-220i – 2 sensor pads, BC-230i – 4 sensor pads).
BC-220i BC-230i
Baby Control Digital 11
To ensure the proper use of twin mode, each baby must be in placed in his/her own cots. These Cots should be placed as far
away from each other as the cables of the sensor pads will allow, but at least 40 cm. This ensures that the movements of each
baby will not interfere with the other’s sensor pads. You may test whether the cots are at an adequate distance by taking
one baby out of the cot. The sensor pad placed in his/her cot then must display no movement and the Baby Control Digital
breathing monitor will trigger an alarm. Then the test should also be carried out with the second baby. At least 2 sensor pads
are needed for twins, one pad under each baby.

Pung Baby Control Digital breathing monitor –
TWIN MODE (BC-220i, BC-230i) to operaon
1. Detach the outer plasc cover (4) from the control unit (8). The parts are not screwed together and can be pulled apart
carefully.
2. Insert two alkaline AA baeries (do not use rechargeable baeries) into the baery compartment (5) inside the control unit
(8). Make sure the baeries are in the marked +/– direcon.
3. Subsequently, the condion of baeries and control unit (8) are automacally tested. You will hear an audible signal from
the speaker (3) twice and simultaneously the le indicator light (6) ashes green and the right indicator light (7) ashes red.
4. Aach the outer plasc cover (4) to the control unit (8).
5. Connect the sensor pad cables (11) to the socket (9 or 10) located on the side of the control unit (8).
6. Place the sensor pads (11) evenly on the cot’s base (approximately beneath where the baby’s chest will be) and place the
maress over them. Never bend, fold or roll sensor pads!
7. Aach the control unit (8) to the baby’s cot using Velcro clamps. The Baby Control Digital cable must be secured so that a
bigger baby cannot pull it, the best way is to wind it around one of the cot bars.
8. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is ready for operaon.
Switching ON/OFF the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor –
TWIN MODE (BC-220i, BC-230i)
1. Press and hold the ON/OFF buon (1) for 2 seconds. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor will not start if pressed
for a shorter period.
2. The pre-set detecon threshold level will ash on the display (2) ten mes. The factory seng is “3“.
3. Then the numerical values “0” = no movement, “1” to “9” = there is any movement will repeatedly ash on the display (2).
At rst, the measured value coming from the le socket (9) is displayed with simultaneous ashing of the le indicator light
(6), then from the right socket (10) with simultaneous ashing of the right indicator light (7).
4. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is now switched on and ready for operaon.
5. The indicator lights (6 and 7) ash green when the intensity of breathing movements reaches or exceeds the pre-set
detecon threshold level.
6. The indicator light (6 or 7) will start to ash red accompanied by a short audible signal from the speaker (3) if a dangerous
situaon occurs (see “Alarm status of Baby Control Digital breathing monitor – TWIN MODE”).
7. Aer the audible alarm signal is acvated, you can only stop the alarm by pressing the ON/OFF buon (1) once.
The control unit (8) is switched o.
8. The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor can be switched o by pressing the ON/OFF buon (1) twice in succession.
Aer the rst press the display (2) shows “-” and if you press the ON/OFF buon (1) again within 5 seconds, the device
switches o with two short audible signals. If you do not press the ON/OFF buon again within 5 seconds, the monitor
stays on and returns to normal operaon.
Operaon of the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor –
TWIN MODE (BC-220i, BC-230i)
The numerical display (2) will show the intensity of breathing movements detected by the Baby Control Digital approximately
every 2.5 seconds (9 - the most intensive, 1 - the least intensive, 0 - no movement detected). At rst, the value coming from
the le socket (9) is displayed – breathing movements of the baby lying on the sensor pad to the le. Then the value coming
from the right socket (10) is displayed - breathing movements of the baby lying on the sensor pad to the right.
Baby Control Digital 12

IMPORTANT: In the twin mode, at rst the status of the sensor pad connected to the socket on the le-hand side
ashes on the display, then the status of the sensor pad on the right-hand side.
IMPORTANT: For the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor operaon it is very important to adjust the
threshold level of detecon, i.e. the value between 1 and 9 to be aained by the breathing movement of the
baby. Typically, the value 3 is used (factory seng). You may change the seng in jused cases (see “Adjusng
the threshold level of detecon”).
Alarm status of Baby Control Digital breathing monitor –
TWIN MODE (BC-220i, BC-230i)
1. The detected value of breathing movements coming from the le or right sensor pad (11) is lower four mes in succession
(12 seconds) than the pre-set detecon threshold level.
2. The indicator light (6 – baby lying to the le or 7 – baby lying to the right) above the appropriate socket starts ashing red
and simultaneously four audible warning signals sound from the speaker (3).
(If detecon of breathing movements is restored in this phase, Baby Control Digital connues its normal operaon.)
3. The alarm is triggered! The display (2) shows the leers “H” – “E” – “L” – “P”.
4. The alarm sounds unl you press the ON/OFF buon (1). Then the device switches o.
5. The alarm is not silenced even when the signal from any of sensor pads (11) is transmied again.
6. In case of any alarm you must check whether it is not false (a false alarm can be caused by a maress being too thick or
baby moving outside the sensor pad).
IMPORTANT: When you use more than one sensor pad under one baby in the twin mode, you may connect
maximally 2-2 sensor pads to Baby Control Digital breathing monitor using the T-connecon (included in
package). Take special care that the two sensor pads connected using T-connecon are placed under the same
baby! Otherwise the device is not able to dierenate between the movements of two babies.
Baby Control Digital 13
At the same me the indicator light (6) above the socket (9) and the indicator light (7) above the socket (10) ash green if
the intensity of detected movements reaches or exceeds the pre-set threshold level. Thus it is possible to check even from
a distance whether the device has detected movements that are intensive enough. An acousc warning signal will sound
from the speaker (3) and the indicator light (6 or 7) will start to ash red when the measured value does not reach the preset
detecon threshold level four mes in succession (12 seconds). Then the alarm is acvated. If the measured value is very low
or equal to zero, it is likely that the maress placed on the sensor pad is extremely thick or the baby is lying close to the edge
of the sensor pad (11). Please change this state to avoid false alarms.

Temporary/permanent suspension of TWIN MODE
(BC-220i, BC-230i)
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor BC-220i and BC-230i for twins may also be used for only one baby. The device
must be switched from the twin mode into one-baby mode. This means a permanent switching from one mode to another -
not to be confused with a temporary suspension of the twin mode!
1. When switched o, press the ON/OFF buon (1) and hold for approximately 30 seconds unl leers “S” –“E” appear.
Release the ON/OFF buon (1).
2. The display shows alternang values “1” and“2”.
3. If you press the ON/OFF buon (1) while “1” is displayed, the Baby Control Digital breathing monitor will be set to the
one-baby mode and should be operated according to the instrucons described above.
4. If you press the ON/OFF buon (1) while “2” is displayed, the twin mode is set.
Temporary suspension of TWIN MODE
The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor oers you the opon of temporary suspension of the twin mode e.g. in the case
that one baby is sll sleeping, but the other had to be taken out of the cot for any reason.
1. For temporary suspension of the twin mode briey press the ON/OFF buon (1) once. This will cause the temporary change
to the one-baby mode.
2. The red ashing indicator light (6 or 7) on the side where the baby is not present warns you not to forget to change the
device back to the twin mode aer the second baby is returned to the cot on the sensor pad (11) connected into an
appropriate socket (9 or 10).
3. The twin mode is restored by shortly pressing the ON/OFF buon (1) again.
IMPORTANT: The Baby Control Digital breathing monitor is wholly independent of 230V network and operates
exclusively at low voltage. An electric shock is praccally impossible! The device does not generate or emit any
electromagnec or other radiaon. The use of the device is perfectly safe.
IF YOU SUSPECT THERE MAY BE A FAULT, DO NOT USE THE DEVICE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
