• 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.
What happens during a power failure?
• If the parent unit is sufficiently charged,
it continues to operate during a power failure.
If there are batteries in the baby unit, it also
continues to operate during a power failure.
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.
The operating time of the parent unit is
supposed to be up to 18 hours. Why is
the operating time of my parent unit shorter?
• When the parent unit has been charged for
the first time, the operating time is less than 18
hours. The rechargeable batteries only reach
their full capacity after you have charged and
discharged them at least four times.
• The volume of the parent unit may be too high,
which causes the parent unit to consume a lot
of energy. Decrease the volume of the parent
unit
• The microphone sensitivity level of the baby
unit may be too high, which causes the parent
unit to consume a lot of energy. Decrease the
microphone sensitivity level in the menu of the
parent unit.

Why does it take some time for the battery
status indicator to appear on the display when I
start charging the parent unit while it is off?
• This is normal. The parent unit needs a few
seconds to wake up when you connect it to an
electric outlet while it is switched off. When it is
connected, the parent unit first needs to detect
that it is charging and it has to measure the
battery charge level before the battery status
indicator can be displayed.
Why do the rechargeable batteries of the parent
unit run low quickly?
• The rechargeable batteries have reached the
end of their life. You have to replace them. To
replace the rechargeable batteries, see chapter
'Ordering accessories'.
