4.2.2 Inserting the batteries

If the parent unit is not close to a wall socket, you can run it on two 1.5V R6 AA alkaline non-rechargeable batteries or two 1.2V R6 AA rechargeable batteries (not supplied). The operating time on full batteries is up to 24 hours, depending on the type of batteries used and on how long and how often you use the parent unit on batteries.

Note:

Please note that the parent unit does not charge the batteries when it is connected to the mains. You can use rechargeable batteries in the parent unit, but you need to charge them in a separate charger.

Warning:

Unplug the parent unit and make sure your hands and the unit are dry when you insert the batteries.

1 Press the release button (1) to unlock the battery compartment lid and remove the lid (2).

What to do if no link is established

- If the parent unit is out of range, place it closer to the baby unit.

- If the baby unit or parent unit is too close to another DECT appliance (e.g. a cordless phone), switch off this appliance or move the unit away from this appliance.

- If the baby unit is switched off, switch it on.

5.2.1 Operating range

- The operating range is up to 300 metres/985 feet outdoors and up to 50 metres/150 feet indoors.

- The operating range of the baby monitor varies depending on the surroundings and factors that cause signal attenuation. Wet and moist materials cause so much signal attenuation that the range loss is up to 100%.

For signal attenuation from dry materials, see table below.

Dry materials Material thickness	Loss of range
Wood, plaster, cardboard< 30cm glass (without metal, wires or lead) (12in)	0-10%
Brick, plywood < 30cm (12in)	5-35%
Reinforced concrete < 30cm (12in)	30-100%
Metal grilles or bars < 1cm (0.4in)	90-100%
Metal or aluminium sheets < 1cm (0.4in)	100%

12 Frequently asked questions

Why don't the power-on light of the baby unit and the 'link' light of the parent unit come on when I press the on/off buttons of the units?

• Perhaps one or both units are not plugged in properly. Connect the units to the mains and press the on/off buttons on both units for 3 seconds to establish connection between the parent unit and the baby unit.
• If you use the parent unit on batteries, the batteries of the parent unit are empty or there are no batteries in the battery compartment.

Why does the 'link' light on the parent unit flash red continuously?

- The baby unit and the parent unit are out of range of each other. Move the parent unit closer to the baby unit.

- The baby unit may be switched off. Switch on the baby unit.

Why does the parent unit beep?

• If the parent unit beeps while the 'link' light flashes red continuously, the connection with the baby unit is lost. Move the parent unit closer to the baby unit or switch on the baby unit if it was off.
• The baby unit may be switched off. Switch on the baby unit.

Why does the appliance produce a high-pitched noise?

- The units may be too close to each other. Make sure the parent unit and the baby unit are at least 1 metre/3.5 feet away from each other.

Why don't I hear a sound/Why can't I hear my baby cry?

• The baby unit and the parent unit may be out of range of each other. Reduce the distance between the units.
• You may have set the volume to the lowest level (mute). Increase the volume.

Why does the parent unit react too quickly to other sounds?

- The baby unit also picks up other sounds than those of your baby. Move the baby unit closer to the baby (but observe the minimum distance of 1 metre/3.5 feet).

The specified operating range of the baby monitor is 300 metres/985 feet. Why does my baby monitor manage a much smaller distance than that?

- The specified range is only valid outdoors in open air. Inside your house, the operating range is limited by the number and type of walls and/or ceilings in between. Inside the house, the operating range is up to 50 metres/150 feet.

Why is the connection lost or are there sound interruptions every now and then?

• The baby unit and the parent unit are probably close to the outer limits of the operating range. Try a different location or decrease the distance between the units. Please note that it takes about 30 seconds each time before a connection between the units is established.
• You may have placed the unit next to a transmitter or other DECT appliance, such as a DECT telephone or other 1.8GHz/1.9GHz baby monitor. Move the unit away from the other appliances until the connection is re-established.

Is my baby monitor secure from eavesdropping and interference?

- The DECT technology of this baby monitor guarantees no interference from other equipment and no eavesdropping.

Why do the batteries of the parent unit run low so fast when I use the unit on batteries?

• The operating time on batteries may be up to 24 hours, but this depends on the type of batteries and how often and how long you use the parent unit on batteries. Please note that the batteries are not charged when the parent unit is connected to the mains. Plug in the parent unit when a wall socket is available close by to save battery power.
• Make sure you use 1.5V R6 AA alkaline non-rechargeable batteries or charged 1.2V R6 AA rechargeable batteries. Recharge the rechargeable batteries in a separate battery charger.

Can I use the baby unit on batteries?

- No, you cannot use the baby unit on batteries. The baby unit can only be used on mains power.

The Ground Truth image displays a single, solid horizontal line. According to Rule 2 (UNDERSCORE & LINE RULES), this is a stylistic or background line, not a placeholder underscore. Therefore, the OCR result must ignore it and output nothing or only meaningful text. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of four underscores. This is an incorrect interpretation of the line as a placeholder, violating the rule that stylistic lines must be ignored. The OCR has hallucinated underscores where none should exist based on the GT's visual context. Hence, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
