4. OPERATION

English

IMPORTANT!

Before using the Baby phone, check the sound transmission. This checks whether a unit is broken, or whether units are placed out of range of each other. After this first check, sound transmission should be checked on a regular basis as follows:

Have an adult softly speak into the ‘baby unit’. Sounds transmitted from the baby room should be heard clearly via the ‘parent unit’ in another room.

CHANNEL SELECTION

–The Baby phone can use 2 different channels for radio signal transmission. If

sound reception is very poor, or other radio signals are being picked up, please try the other transmission channel as follows:

•Move the channel selector on both units to the other channel (fig. 1.2 and fig. 1.6).

Note: Always make sure the channel switches on both units are set to the same position. This ensures optimum reception.

VISUAL SOUND INDICATION

The ‘parent unit’ has a sound level indicator, which visually alerts parents to their baby’s crying, but no sound is heard via the speaker. To operate the sound level indicator:

•Make sure the ‘baby unit’ is operational in VOICE mode.

•Switch the ‘parent unit’ to ON to the minimum sound level by adjusting the volume control (fig.1.4).

–If a sound signal is received from the ‘baby unit’, the green sound LEVEL LEDs (fig. 1.5) light up. The louder the sound, the more LEDs light up.

ROOM TEMPERTURE INDICATION

The ‘baby unit’ has a built-in thermometer to check the temperature inside baby’s room. The temperature which is shown in green is the current room temperature.

RECHARGEABILITY

The ‘parent unit’ has a recharging function. If the rechargeable batteries are empty they can be recharged easily via the recharging base. To recharge batteries:

•Make sure that the mains power adapter is correctly connected to the recharging base.

–If the mains power adapter is connected correctly, the red CHARGE LED on the recharging base lights up.

•Place the ‘parent unit’ inside the recharging base; batteries start to recharge.

–Totally empty batteries will take up 12-14 hours to fully recharge.

BELT-CLIP

With completely charged batteries, the ‘parent unit’ can be used as a truly cordless product. The unit can be carried in and around the house, using the easy belt-clip. This clip can easily be attached to and removed from the ‘parent unit’ (fig. 5).

TALK-BACK POSSIBILITY

The ‘parent unit’ also has a talk-back possibility. Parents can talk to their children via the ‘parent unit’. This means the Baby phone has full intercom capabilities. To set up the talk-back facility:

•Switch the receiver on the ‘baby unit’ to ON to an acceptable sound level using the volume control (fig. 1.9).

•Keep the TALK button (fig. 1.3) pressed on the ‘parent unit’ and talk clearly into the microphone (fig. 1.1).

–The signal is transmitted by the ‘parent unit’ and the received signal is heard on the ‘baby unit’ speaker.

–Adjust the sound level as required.

Notes:

–Talking back via the ‘parent-unit’ is only possible if the ‘parent-unit’ is not receiving a signal!

–The ‘baby unit’ only receives a signal if it is not already transmitting sounds.

–Switch the receiver on the ‘baby unit’ to OFF using the volume control (fig. 1.9) again after using talk-back possibility. This conserves power.
