1. IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ FIRST!
The Pico is designed to attach to your baby's diaper or child's pajama
pants while they sleep and will continously monitor breathing motion,
skin temperature, sleep position and sleep state. If connected, the
information is streamed to your smartphone via BLE (Bluetooth low
energy) technology.
Up to four (4) Pico's can be linked to a smartphone at one time.
Only one (1) smartphone can monitor your baby at a time.
ALWAYS:
Use the correct size diaper (nappy) to ensure that
the Pico sits securely and squarely on the diaper.
To ensure a rm grip, fold the top of the diaper
over before attaching the Pico. If neccesary, use
the diaper adjusters to provide a snug t around
your baby's tummy.
To attach the Pico, lift the top lever to release the
clip. Slide the Pico onto the waistband or your
child's pants or baby's diaper, placing your ngers
between the clip and skin to ensure that the
skin does not get pinched between the clip and
clothing/diaper. A baby's skin is especially supple
and this can happen quite easily. Close the lever to secure the Pico into
place. Double check to ensure that no skin is caught in the clip.
Switch the Pico on by briey pressing the power button. All indicator lights
will ash and a start-up tone will be heard. Alternatively, switch the Pico
on by pressing the power button in the app. The start-up tone will be silent
if controlled via the app. Immediately after the start-up sequence, the
battery light will ash to indicate the battery state of charge. If not already
connected to your app, press the "Connect" button in the app overview
screen to initiate the connection to your phone.

In order for the Pico to record your baby's position accurately, go to the
settings page on the app and set where the Pico has been attached to
your baby diaper or child's pajama pants. Depending on your baby's
sleep position, you can also place the Pico to the left or right-hand side of
the naval. Please make sure that the Pico has been squarely attached to
the pants or diaper.
Always follow the above procedure to ensure your baby's breathing
movement is being monitored.
NOTE:
Always handle the Pico with care to prevent damage to clip. When
travelling, always store it inside the charging cradle. To avoid false
alarms, always pause your Pico when breastfeeding, changing your
baby's diaper or holding your baby in your arms.

2. INTRODUCTION
This equipment is intended to be operated by the baby or child’s caregiver.
The caregiver must have a good understanding of the instructions and
safety measures within the user manual. Please familiarize yourself with
the instructions and share with anyone caring for your baby or child.
Home Safety:
The Pico safely and conveniently monitors your baby's breathing motion
while sleeping to provide an early intervention opportunity when irregular
breathing motion is detected.
The Pico should be clipped onto your baby's diaper (nappy) or child's
pajama pants. No cords, wires, sensor pads, or external power are
required. The Pico is not suitable for co-sleeping or bed sharing.
The Pico detects even the slightest breathing movement and will alert
you if your baby’s breathing movement stops for a period of 20 seconds.
The Pico will rst vibrate gently after 15 seconds in an attempt to rouse
the baby.
Intended Use:
Intended User:
Use Environment:
The Pico is a portable baby breathing motion monitor which safely
and conveniently monitors your baby or child's breathing motions
while sleeping.

English
Page 4
If the vibration succeeds in rousing the baby and breathing is detected
after such an event the Pico will continue to monitor breathing
movement. After three vibration/rouse events, the Rouse Warning will
alert you to the fact that your baby’s breathing movements have stopped
for 15 seconds on three occasions.
The Rouse Warning is characterized by a short beep and ashing of
the red Movement Indicator Light (1) every 2seconds. Monitoring will
continue when the Rouse Warning is active but will require the caregiver
to attend to the baby to investigate. The Rouse Warning alarm can be
reset by briey turning the device o and then back on. The repeat rouse
warning feature can be disabled using the application.
The Pico will also measure your the position your baby is in and your
baby's skin temperature.

3. PRECAUTIONS AND CONTRAINDICATIONS
• This device is not intended to prevent or monitor a disease or condition
such as Obstructive Apnoea.
• Movement from external sources such as being pushed in a pram or
travelling in a vehicle or aircraft may be detected by Pico's sensor. The
Pico should not be relied upon where external sources of movement are
present.
• The monitored baby must sleep in his/her own separate bed as the
monitor may detect the breathing motion of any other person sharing the
bed with your baby, and will not alarm as long as it detects movement.
• Radio transmitters such as cell phones, audio and video baby monitors,
cordless phones, walkie-talkies, wireless routers, etc. may cause
interference with the monitor’s ability to detect movement. The monitor
should not be placed within 2meters of other transmitting devices or
electrical cables.
• No modication of this device is allowed.
• A single device should be dedicated for use with one baby only.
• In the unlikely event that small parts become detached from the Pico, this
may result in a choking hazard.
• Small parts that have become detached for some unlikely reason may
result in a choking hazard.
• In case your baby develops a skin sensitivity where the device makes
contact with his/her skin, refer to section 7.11 in the manual. If the skin
sensitivity persists, please contact us at [email protected].
• Keep out of reach of pets, pests and other children as damage to the
device might cause malfunction.

Basic Pico Functions
The Movement Indicator Light ashes green on each movement.
If no movement is detected for 15 seconds, your Pico will vibrate to rouse
your baby. If no movement is detected for a further 5seconds, your Pico
will sound an audible alarm.
Basic App Functions
The Snuza Connect App is designed to bring you information on your
baby’s breathing rate, body position, skin temperature, fall detection,
battery levels and alert you if the Pico’s clip is open. Customise your
warning settings to your preference in the App.
Warnings on the App can be dismissed by swiping them from left to
right. This excludes breathing rate and fall detection. These can only be
dismissed by pressing the power button on the device. Ensure that your
smartphone is connected to the app in order to receive all notications
and warnings.
.6 DIAPER FITMENT AND PLACEMENT
Correct diaper tment is essential for the Pico to work. The thin ap of
material at the top of the diaper must be folded over the thicker part
before the diaper is closed (this is the section to which the Pico will be
attached). The diaper should t snugly on your baby with the top of the
diaper just below his/her belly button. Loose tting diapers will gape,
causing the monitor to lose contact with your baby's skin and false alarm.
A very ‘full’ or wet diaper may also cause it to gape. If your baby sleeps
on his or her side, the Pico should be placed to the left or right-hand side
of your baby's navel.
• The World Health Organisation recommends that babies sleep on their
backs. Place the Pico near the centre of your baby's tummy (1)
• If your baby prefers sleeping on his/her left side, attach your Pico to
either position 4or 2.
• If your baby prefers sleeping on his/her right side, attach your Pico on
position 5or 3.
• If your baby prefers sleeping on his/her tummy, attach your Pico close
to position 4or 5.

.7 OPERATION
7.1 Fitting your Pico
When attaching the Pico you should put your ngers in between the
baby’s nappy and the baby’s skin. Make sure that the monitor is clipped
securely onto the diaper and away from the baby’s skin when clipping
on in order not to harm the baby.
Clip the Pico all the way onto the diaper to the full extent of the clip.
To attach lift the front lever to release the clip. Place the clip over the
folded diaper to the full extent of the clip. Close the clip and click the
locking lever closed as shown:
Make sure that the Pico is close to the baby’s tummy around the belly
button area, although closer to the sides may suit different sleeping
positions. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends that
babies be placed to sleep on their back unless advised otherwise by a
doctor. http://www.who.int/en/
• Place on tummy for back sleepers
• Place on side of tummy for belly sleepers
The Pico has a built-in alarm to indicate if the clip has been opened
while in use. Before the alarm occurs, the Pico will beep slowly for 7
seconds to warn you to switch it off or to activate the pause function. If
the clip remains open for a further 3seconds, the Clip Open Alarm will
be activated.
