Battery performance
Rechargeable batteries in the Parent unit will last approximately 20
hours in normal use. Please note that new batteries do not reach full
capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with
time as they wear out, so reducing the performance time of
the Parent unit. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
SETTING UP
Parent unit
Plug one of the power adapter cables into the socket marked
on the back of the Parent unit charger and plug the other end
into the mains power wall socket and switch the power on.
Activate the batteries by pulling the plastic tab
away from the bottom of the Parent unit.
SETTING UP
Place the Parent unit into the charger. The red charging
light will illuminate on the charger to indicate that the
batteries are being charged. Leave the batteries to
charge for 16 hours to reach maximum charge.
The Parent unit rechargeable batteries will lose charge
over a period of time, even if switched off.

When the batteries are low – approximately within 1 hour of running
out – the Parent unit will emit a low battery alert and the low battery
indicator on the unit will turn red. Place the Parent unit back on the
charger to charge the batteries. To speed up the charging process
turn the Parent unit off when charging if it’s not being used.
You can still use your Parent unit to monitor your baby
even when the batteries are low, provided it remains
in the charger cradle to re-charge the batteries.
Never use non-rechargeable batteries in the Parent unit.
Only use the recommended type – 2 x AA NiMH 1300mAh
batteries. Using other types could permanently damage the
unit. Charge the batteries as instructed in this user guide. The
Parent unit can still be used when it is in the charger.
If you ever need to remove the batteries, simply slide open the battery
compartment cover and use the ribbon to eject the batteries.

1.Press and hold the button on the Baby unit
for 1 second. The nightlight will briefly illuminate
and then the green Link indicator will flash.

on the unit briefly illuminate. The green Link indicator will flash.
Once the units are linked, the green Link indicators on
the Parent and Baby units will stop flashing and remain

The link confirmation between the two units is vital for use so
they can communicate. If the link between the units is broken
at any time, the Link indicators on the Parent and Baby units
will flash green as they try to search for each other. After
30 seconds, if the link is still broken they will flash red and
you will also hear an alert signal from the Parent unit.
SETTING UP
If the link is broken:
• check that the mains power is plugged in
and switched on at the Baby unit
• check that both units are switched on
• check that the batteries are charged in the Parent unit
• check that the Parent and Baby units are within
range of each other (in ideal conditions the range is
up to 300 metres outdoors and 50m indoors)
The Baby unit should ideally be within 1m-2m
of your baby for best performance.
If you place the Parent and Baby units too close together you will
hear a high pitched noise, this is normal. The units are designed to
be located at a distance from one another, e.g. in separate rooms.
1.Press and hold the button for 1 second. The nightlight will
briefly illuminate and then the green LED will flash until it Links
with the Parent unit. Once linked the green LED will remain on.
1.Press and hold the button on the Parent unit
until all the LEDs on the top of the unit briefly
illuminate. The green Link indicator will flash.
Once the units are linked, the green Link indicators on
the Parent and Baby units will stop flashing and remain
a steady green. The units are now ready to use.
1.Press and hold the button on the Baby unit.

The seven LEDs across the top of the Parent unit light up to
indicate the level of sound being received from the Baby unit.
The LEDs light up progressively as the sound increases.
LEDs 1-2 light up Green (or Amber if Mute
Low is on) when sounds of 57dB and 63dB are received.
LEDs 3-4 light up Green when sounds of 69dB and 75dB are received.
LEDs 5-7 light up Red when sounds of 83dB,
89dB or 95dB are received.
Equivalent sound level examples: 60dB-70dB = normal conversation.
75dB = loud conversation and 83-95dB = loud traffic noise
There are 5 volume levels and off (Mute).
The default loudspeaker volume is Level 3.
1.Press or to select the required level. You will hear a
difference in volume as you keep pressing the button(s).
If you wish to switch the volume off, keep pressing until the
Mute LED turns red (Mute All) or press the button.
If you try and set the volume higher or lower than the 5 settings
available on either unit you will hear an error tone.
Setting the Parent unit volume to Off is the equivalent of switching the Mute
All feature on. See page 17 for more information on Mute All.
The Mute All feature prevents any sound coming out from
the Parent unit loudspeaker. With Mute All on you can
still monitor your baby using the Baby sound level LED
indicators (page 15) and the Crying Alert (below).
1.To switch Mute All on, press the button located on the
top of the unit. The Mute indicator will illuminate red.
2.To switch Mute All off, press the button
again.The red Mute indicator will go off.
The crying alert will only be activated if Mute All has been
switched on (or if the Parent unit loudspeaker volume has been
switched off), see above for information on the Mute All feature.
With Mute All switched on, if your baby starts to cry you will not be
able to hear the cries but if the cries sound above a certain level i.e. if
they reach 83dB, which is the 1st red Baby sound level LED, then the
Parent unit will emit an audible beep.
Setting the Parent unit loudspeaker volume to Volume Off is the
equivalent of switching the Mute All feature on.
If the or buttons are pressed whilst Mute All or Mute Low has been set then Mute All
or Low will be switched off and the loudspeaker volume will return to Level 3 automatically.
For discreet operation, when you do not wish to hear any
low level sounds, you can still monitor your baby using
the Baby sound level LED indicators (page 15).
When Mute Low is switched on, any sounds from the Baby
unit to the Parent unit will be muted unless a sound is made
above a set level. The set level are sounds that are louder than
the first two green LEDs would register, as described in ‘Baby
sound level indications’ on page 15. If the Parent unit receives
sound up to the level of the first two LEDs then they will turn
amber but no sound will be heard, if the sound rises above this
level then the unit will un-mute so you can hear the sounds.
1.To switch Mute Low on, press the button located on the
top of the Parent unit. The Mute indicator will turn amber.
2.To switch Mute Low off, press the button
again. The amber indicator will switch off.
Once the Mute Low sound threshold has been exceeded, baby sounds will be able to be
heard for a further six seconds even if they do not reach the Mute Low threshold.
You can use the Parent unit Talk Back feature as a one way
intercom to comfort and reassure your baby. By speaking into the
Parent unit your baby will hear your voice from the Baby unit.
Please note that when using Talk Back you will
not be able to hear your baby until you release
the button.
Press and hold down the button on the
Parent unit to speak to your baby.
Whilst the button is depressed the green
Link indicators will flash on both units.
You can set a comforting nightlight on the Baby unit.
Switch Baby unit nightlight on/off
1.To switch on, press the button.
2.To switch off, press the button.
You will be able to activate Talk Back mode even if other functions have been activated at the
Baby unit e.g. Nightlight on.
Do not press the button when the Baby unit and Parent unit are positioned in the same
room. High-pitch noise will be generated if the button is pressed when Baby unit and Parent
unit are close to each other or within 3 metres distance. When using Talk Back, hold the Parent
unit approximately 30cm in front of your mouth when talking to baby.
The Baby unit must be switched on for the nightlight to work,but need not be linked to the Parent
unit.
You can press the button on the Baby unit to make the Parent unit
sound an alert beep to help you find it if it’s been misplaced. If the
Parent unit loudspeaker volume had been Muted (or set to volume
off), the volume level will be reset to the default setting of Level 3.
1.Press on the Baby unit. The paging alert
will sound at the Parent unit.
2.To stop the alert, press any button on the Parent unit or press
the button again on the Baby unit. If no button is pressed
after 2 minutes then the alert will automatically stop.
Once the Mute Low sound threshold has been exceeded, baby sounds will be able to be
heard for a further six seconds even if they do not reach the Mute Low threshold.
