Testing Your Monitor
Always test your monitor before using it the first time and then on a periodic basis. Before testing your
monitor, complete the set-up process as described above.
1. Testing for Sound. Turn the Nursery Unit and Parent Unit on, making sure they are both set to the same
channel. On the Nursery Unit, switch to the "Sound Only" function. Have someone else speak into the Nursery
Unit or place a radio near the Nursery Unit while you take the Parent Unit into another room. You should hear
the sounds being transmitted from the Nursery Unit. If there is no sound, adjust your volume control and/or
refer to the Troubleshooting section. If you experience interference or static, switch both units to the other
channel.
2. Testing for Movement. Switch the Nursery Unit to the "Sound & Movement" function. The Movement
Indicator Light on the Nursery Unit will flash red, green, and then emit a single "Tic" sound. Gently pat your
hand on the mattress. The green Movement Indicator Light will continue to flash with every movement. The
Nursery Unit will also tick with every movement. Remove your hand from the mattress. Due to no movement,
the ticking will stop, the Movement Indicator Light will stop flashing, and a pre-alarm beep will sound after
15 seconds. Five seconds later the alarm will sound and the red Alarm Indicator Light will flash continuously.
You can also test for movement with the Nursery Unit set to the "Tic Off" position. In this case, you will not
hear a constant ticking when you touch the mattress. When you remove your hand from the mattress the
Movement Indicator Light will stop flashing, a pre-alarm beep will sound after 15 seconds, and five seconds
later the alarm will sound and the red Alarm Indicator Light will flash continuously.
To turn off the alarm, turn the Nursery Unit off or pat your hand lightly on the mattress so the Sensor Pad will
redetect movement. The red Alarm Indicator Light on the Nursery Unit will continue to flash for one minute
and it will then revert to green.
If the alarm does not sound when you are not touching the mattress, the Sensor Pad may be detecting a
continuous vibration from another source from inside and/or outside your baby's room. Common sources of
this interference are crib mobiles, fans, washing machines, or even loud music. Therefore, it is very important
to make sure all vibration sources are eliminated before using the monitor. Place the crib near a solid
supporting wall and away from strong air currents. Do not use crib mobiles or accessories that may cause
vibrations. Avoid contact with the crib when the monitor is in use.
If you find the alarm will still not sound when you are not touching the mattress or crib, the monitor is on,
and you have removed all external sources of vibration, the sensitivity level may need to be decreased. Please
refer to the Movement Sensitivity Adjustment section.
3. Testing for Battery Power. Verify that the units are operating on battery power by installing four AAA
batteries in each unit and unplugging the AC adapters. The green Power Indicator should light up on all units.
