FM source.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.
