Answer
It takes about 3 times full recharge and discharges before the
rechargeable NiMH batteries have their full capacity available.
Leaving the rechargeable battery pack continuously connected
to a charging unit can shorten it’s lifetime. If the product is not
used for some time, the charged battery pack slowly looses it’s
load.This is normal; a short recharge will bring it back to it’s full
capacity again.
The charging light (C-6) is always activated as soon as the
parent unit is installed. It gradually dims when the batteries are
fully charged but remains lit, indicating that the parent unit is
powered.
At this point your battery is probably completely empty.After
some 30 minutes of charging it will be possible to switch the
parent unit on, while installed on the charging unit.
Set microphone sensitivity on the baby unit to a higher level
and / or move the baby unit closer to the baby (keep minimal
distance of 1 meter / 3 feet).
Set microphone sensitivity on the baby unit to a lower level
and/or move the baby unit closer to the baby (keep minimal
distance of 1 meter / 3 feet).
You are probably approaching the outer boundaries of the
practical range.Try a different location or reduce the distance
slightly. Please note that it takes about 30 seconds each time
before a new link is established.
