BEFORE USE
The Echö is a portable lightweight heartbeat monitor. It is mainly used to detect the sound
of the fetal heartbeat (SFH). Always consult your physician before using the Echö. Do not
use for diagnosis purposes.
INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING THE BATTERY
Open the battery cover D, remove the protective wrap around the included battery
and connect it securely to the battery clip as per the below gure. Install the battery
back into the battery compartment and put the cover back on.
NOTE: When not in use, remove the battery from the Echö and store it in a cool and dry environment. This will protect both the
monitor and the battery.

Echö EN
NOTE: You can also use a personal speaker using a standard 3.5 mm stereo audio jack.
CONNECTING THE EARPHONE
It is possible for one or two people to listen to the baby’s heartbeat at the same time.
Single listener - connect one earphone set to the headphone jack A.
Double listener - connect the splitter, to the headphone jack A rst, and then connect
each earphone set Ato one of the splitter’s output jacks (Second earphone set not
included).

PREPARING THE SURFACE
In a sitting position or laying down, remove any clothing on your belly to be directly on the
skin.
1. You can use the Echö on dry skin or, for a better experience, you may use some
Ultrasound Transmission Gel or a personal lubricating gel which reduces the static
caused by moving the monitor around on the belly. Baby oil, coconut oil, virgin olive
oil or petroleum jelly (e.g. Vaseline) also work well.
STARTING THE ECHÖ AND LISTENING TO BABY’S HEARTBEAT
1. Power On the Echö with the On/Off/Volume control E . The Power indicator light F
will turn on to indicate the Echö is on.
2. Hold the monitor to your heart rst to test it. (Your heartbeat is easier to distinguish
compared to the baby’s heartbeat). Refer to the Troubleshooting section if you are
not sure it is working.
3. After checking that the Echö is working properly,
hold it to your abdomen to listen to your baby’s
heartbeat. The baby’s heart sounds like a galloping
horse at approximately twice the maternal rate. A
wind-like sound will be heard from the placenta.
Between 8 to 16 gestational weeks it is possible to
hear your baby’s heartbeat if conditions are optimal
but you may not be able to detect it that early on.
After the 16th gestational week you should have no
problem nding the heartbeat. As the baby grows,
the heartbeat becomes stronger and it will be easier
for you to detect it. Look at the gestational chart
below where you should be able to nd your baby’s
heartbeat as it grows each week.
NOTE: We do not recommend to use of colored gels or lotions. Caution: Be sure not to get gel into the area around the
On/Off/Volume knob as this could damage the Echö.

NOTE: Keep in mind that each mother and baby is different so not being able to detect the heartbeat early is not a reason
for concern. If you are not able to detect the baby within 10 minutes, it is recommended to take a break and to try again
in the next few days. However, if you are concerned about any issues relating to your pregnancy you should contact your
healthcare provider for assistance.

Echö EN
4. Move the Echö very slowly to nd the optimum placement based on the baby’s
current position.
5. After the heartbeat is detected, adjust the volume E to a comfortable level and
enjoy.
6. After you are done listening, turn off F the power and gently wipe the probe B
clean.
NOTE: We recommend keeping the session to less than 10 minutes at a time. While the Echö is considered safe for
“continuous use” by regulatory bodies including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), we recommend limiting use
in short intervals, infrequently and primarily after the rst trimester. The Echö is NOT intended to be used for diagnostic
or medical purposes and is not to be used as a substitute for regular prenatal care by a licensed doctor. Contact your
healthcare provider for assistance if you are concerned.
RECORDING
• Connect the Computer Recording Cable to the Echö using the USB Mini plug C
and connect the other end to a recording device. Recording devices could be your
computer using the microphone jack or any external recording equipment using the
audio in jack. You can use a basic free recording software that usually comes with
your computer or available online.
• Another way to get a recording is to connect the Echö to an external audio speaker
and then use your smart phone or tablet to record a live video. Then you can share
the video with your loved ones right from your phone.
• You may also record the mother’s heartbeat at the same time and keep this
recording to play it to soothe your newborn baby at daycare and at home.

EN Echö
MAINTENANCE
The transducer is fragile and must be handled with care. Please check that the Echö
does not have visible signs of damage that may affect user safety ormonitoring capability
before use.
• Carefully inspect the equipment for physical damage.
• Examine the case, connectors and accessories making sure every part is clean and is
not cracked or damaged in any way.
• After the visual inspection, if the Echö and/or its accessories are damaged,
replacement is needed.
• Before cleaning, turn off the Echö E, disconnect the earphones Aand the
recording cable Cand remove the battery.
• If gel is used, clean it from the transducer probe Bwith a soft cloth. You can
disinfect the probe by wiping it with 70% ethanol or alcohol wipes and then drying
with a soft dry cloth.
• Do not use abrasives, solvents, bleach, steam or high temperature cleaning
processes to sterilize the Echö as any of these can damage it.
• Do not immerse in water or other liquids to clean the Echö.
• Do not disassemble the Echö.
• Checking the battery level
NOTE - The Echö requires no calibration.

FAQ
CONFIGURATION ISSUES
Q: The Echö doesn’t turn on
A: Install a new battery and make sure the On/Off/ Volume Eknob is turned on.
Verify that the battery connector is connected fully onto the battery terminals.
Make sure you’ve removed the clear protective wrapper off of the battery.
Q: The power indicator LED Fis weak
A: Install a new battery.
Q: There is no sound coming through the earphones
A: Make sure the power indicator LED Fis on.
Check that the earphone wire is pushed all the way into the headset jack Aof the Echö.
Check all the wires to be sure they are in good condition. Be sure to turn up the volume
using the On/Off/Volume Eknob. If it is still not working, install a new battery.

EN Echö
Q: Uncomfortable noise is coming through the earphones
A: Interference can be caused by nearby electronic devices (e.g. high frequency
electronics, cell phones, cordless phones, etc.). Also, when you can hear some slight
noises occur when moving the probe from one location to another, you might need to
apply some more gel. You can also install a new battery, a weak battery can cause noise.
Q: How soon can I hear the baby?
A: We recommend to use the Echo after the 16th week of pregnancy. Before this time,
there are a lot of variables which may no let you hear your baby yet, such as the position
of your placenta. Keep in mind that the baby is still tiny before 16 weeks of gestation. The
Echö works more like a laser pointer than a oodlight in that you will hear the baby when
it is perfectly lined up. If you are off slightly you’ll miss the baby’s heart and wont hear
anything. As the baby grows every week, you will be able to nd the baby’s heart rate
more easily.
Q: I’m nding it difcult to nd baby’s heartbeat after 16 weeks
A: First check to see if you can hear your own heartbeat to be sure the Echö is working
correctly. If you can not hear your own heartbeat, you should troubleshoot before
attempting to locate the baby’s heartbeat. Move the probe very slowly around
your abdomen to make it easier to nd the optimum placement to hear your baby’s
heartbeat. The baby can sometimes be located behind the placenta making it difcult to
nd. You might not have found the optimum placement of the probe to hear the baby’s
heartbeat, take a break for a day and try again. Don’t apply too much pressure to your
abdomen.
Q: The battery cover doesn’t stay closed
A: When putting the battery back into the Echö, run the wires down the right side between
the battery holder and the inside wall with the clip end of the battery towards the On/Off/
Volume E knob. This allows the battery to sit lower in the compartment, so the battery
cover D will close easier and more completely.

AVANT UTILISATION
Echö est un moniteur de rythme cardiaque portable et léger. Il est principalement utilisé
pour détecter le son des battements de cœur du fœtus (SFH). Consultez toujours votre
médecin avant d'utiliser Echö. Ne l'utilisez pas à des ns de diagnostic.
CONSIGNES D’UTILISATION
METTRE LA PILE
Retirez le couvercle D, ôtez l'enveloppe de protection autour de la batterie fournie
et reliez-la solidement à l’attache de la pile, comme indiqué sur la gure ci-dessous.
Remettez la pile dans son compartiment et replacez le couvercle.
REMARQUE : Lorsque vous ne l'utilisez pas, retirez la pile et conservez-la dans un endroit frais et sec. Cela permettra de

PRÉPARATION DE LA SURFACE
En position assise ou allongée, dénudez votre ventre pour le mettre en contact direct
avec la peau.
1. Vous pouvez utiliser Echö sur une peau sèche ou, pour une meilleure expérience, vous
pouvez utiliser un gel de transmission des ultrasons ou un gel lubriant personnel qui réduit
l’électricité statique causée par le déplacement du moniteur sur le ventre. L'huile pour bébé,
l'huile de noix de coco, l'huile d'olive vierge ou la vaseline fonctionne également bien.
DÉMARRER ECHÖ ET ÉCOUTER LES BATTEMENTS DE CŒUR DU BÉBÉ
1. Allumez Echö à l’aide du bouton Marche/Arrêt/Volume E . Le voyant lumineux de
marche F s'allume pour indiquer qu’Echö est allumé.
2. Posez le moniteur sur votre cœur pour le tester. (Les battements de votre cœur sont
plus faciles à distinguer que ceux du bébé). Reportez-vous à la section Dépannage
si vous n'êtes pas sûr qu'il fonctionne.
3. Après avoir vérié le bon fonctionnement d'Echö, posez-le sur votre abdomen pour
écouter les battements de cœur de votre bébé. Le
cœur du bébé bat comme un cheval au galop à un
rythme environ deux fois supérieur à celui de la mère.
Un bruit de vent se fait entendre à partir du placenta.
Entre 8 et 16 semaines de gestation, il est possible
d'entendre les battements du cœur de votre bébé
si les conditions sont optimales, mais il se peut que
vous ne puissiez pas les détecter si tôt. Après la 16ème
semaine de gestation, vous ne devriez plus avoir
de problème pour trouver les battements de votre
cœur. À mesure que le bébé grandit, les battements
du cœur deviennent plus forts et il vous sera plus
facile de les détecter. Consultez le tableau de
gestation ci-dessous, où vous devriez pouvoir trouver
les battements de cœur de votre bébé au fur et à
mesure qu'il grandit chaque semaine.
REMARQUE : Nous ne recommandons pas l'utilisation de gels ou de lotions colorés. Mise en garde : Veillez à ne pas mettre de
gel dans la zone située autour du bouton Marche/Arrêt/Volume, car cela pourrait endommager l’appareil.

REMARQUE : Gardez à l'esprit que chaque mère et chaque bébé est différent, aussi ne pas pouvoir détecter le battement
de cœur tôt dans la gestation n'est pas un motif d'inquiétude. Si vous n'êtes pas en mesure de repérer le bébé dans les 10
minutes, il est recommandé de faire une pause et d'essayer à nouveau dans les jours qui suivent. Toutefois, si vous êtes
préoccupée par des problèmes liés à votre grossesse, contactez votre médecin. 19
Echö FR

4. Déplacez Echö très lentement pour trouver le placement optimal en fonction de la
position du bébé.
5. Après avoir détecté le battement du cœur, réglez le volume Eà un niveau
confortable et protez-en.
6. Lorsque vous avez ni d'écouter, coupez l'alimentation F et essuyez doucement la
sonde B.
REMARQUE : Nous vous recommandons de limiter la durée de la séance à moins de 10 minutes à la fois. Bien qu’Echö soit
considéré comme un appareil pouvant être utilisé en toute sécurité pour une « utilisation continue » par les organismes
de réglementation, y compris la Food and Drug Administration (FDA), nous recommandons de limiter l'utilisation à de
courts intervalles espacés et principalement après le premier trimestre. Echö n'est PAS destiné à être utilisé à des ns de
diagnostic ou médicales et ne doit pas se substituer aux soins prénataux réguliers dispensés par un médecin agréé.
Si vous êtes inquiète, contactez votre médecin.
ENREGISTREMENT
• Branchez le câble d'enregistrement de l'ordinateur sur Echö en utilisant la mini-
