Preparing for use
Baby unit
You can use the baby unit corded or on non-rechargeable batteries. Even
if you are going to use the unit corded, we advise you to insert the non-
rechargeable batteries. This guarantees automatic back-up in case of power
failure.
Cord operation
1 Put the large appliance plug in the baby unit and put the adapter in a
wall socket.
The power-on light goes on.
Battery operation (non-rechargeable batteries)
The baby unit runs on four 1.5V R6 AA batteries (not included). We
recommend you to use Philips LR6 PowerLife batteries or an equivalent
type.
Do not use rechargeable batteries, as the baby unit does not have a
charging function.
Unplug the baby unit and make sure your hands and the unit are dry
when you insert the non-rechargeable batteries.
1 Remove the lid of the compartment for non-rechargeable batteries.
2 Insert four non-rechargeable batteries.
Note: Make sure the + and - poles point in the right direction.
3 Reattach the lid.
Note: When the batteries are low, the battery light on the baby unit ashes red.
Parent unit
Battery operation (rechargeable battery pack)
The parent unit comes with a SCD510 NiMH rechargeable battery pack.
Charge the parent unit before you use it for the rst time or when the
battery light indicates that the battery pack is low. The battery light ashes
red when the battery pack is low. The battery light starts to ash red 30
minutes before the battery pack is completely empty.
Note: If the battery pack is completely empty, the parent unit automatically
switches off and loses contact with the baby unit.

Question Answer
Why don’t both 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

ENGLISH 19
Question Answer
Why does the LINK light on
the parent unit ash red?
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 battery light
on the baby unit ash red?
The non-rechargeable batteries of the baby unit are running low.
Replace the non-rechargeable batteries or connect the baby unit to an

rechargeable battery pack of the parent unit is running low. Recharge
the battery pack.
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 3 feet/1 meter away from each other.
The volume of the parent unit may be set too high. Decrease the
volume of the parent unit.
Why don’t I hear a sound/
Why can’t I hear my baby
cry?
The volume of the parent unit may be set too low or may be switched
off. Increase the volume of the parent unit.
The microphone sensitivity level of the baby unit may be set too low.
Increase the microphone sensitivity level with the SENSITIVITY button
on the parent unit.
The baby unit and the parent unit may be out of range of each other.
Reduce the distance between the units.
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
3 feet/1 meter).
The microphone sensitivity level of the baby unit may be set too high.
Decrease the microphone sensitivity level with the SENSITIVITY button

unit.
Perhaps you have switched on the nightlight. If you want to use the
nightlight, we advise you to run the baby unit on electrical power.
ENGLISH20
Question Answer
Why does the charging time
of the parent unit exceed 8
hours?
The parent unit may be switched on during charging. Switch off the
parent unit during charging.
The specied operating range
of the baby monitor is 330
meters/1000 feet. Why does
my baby monitor manage a
much smaller distance than
that?
The specied 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
meters/150 feet.
Why is the connection lost
every now and then?
Why are there sound
interruptions?
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.
What happens during a
power failure?
If the parent unit is sufciently charged, it continues to operate during a
power failure, both connected to and disconnected from the adapter. 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 at least 24 hours. Why
is the operating time of my
