Baby Control breathing monitor must not be used with rechargeable AA batteries because
their combined rated voltage is only 2.4V!
The battery condition is tested automatically every time the device is switched on.
Testing the Baby Control breathing monitor
To test the Baby Control baby monitor perform the following tests.
Remove the baby from the cot and allow the bed and surroundings to settle for a few minutes.
Switch the device on, the pre-set threshold (default is 3) will flash on the display several times.
Then every 2.5 seconds the detected value will be displayed on the display, with no movement
this should be 0 or 1. Then gently touch the mattress with your fingers and observe the
number on the display increasing. Then remove your hand and the numbers on the display
will decrease back down to 0 or 1. Once it has reached 0 or 1, wait a further 14 seconds and
you will hear an audible pre alarm signal 4 times. If no movement is detected the alarm will
sound after 20 seconds.
Test your Baby Control breathing monitor at least once or twice a week.
IMPORTANT: The Baby Control breathing monitor is sensitive to even tiny mechanical
vibrations coming from the surroundings and its operation may be influenced by external
effects (ventilator, draught, nearby refrigerator, TV, toy of baby’s elder brother or sister,
dynamic walk near the cot, etc.). We recommend that you eliminate these effects as much as
possible not only for the sake of the baby’s undisturbed sleep, but also to avoid the
malfunction of the device. If these effects cannot be completely eliminated, then perform the
testing with increased caution. In case of need you may decrease the sensitivity of Baby
Control breathing monitor so that the threshold level of detection is adjusted in the manner
described above (see “Adjusting the detection level threshold”).
IMPORTANT: The Baby Control breathing monitor is wholly independent of 230V network and
operates exclusively at low voltage. An electric shock is practically impossible! The device
does not generate or emit any electromagnetic or other radiation. The use of the device is
perfectly safe.
IF YOU SUSPECT THERE MAY BE A FAULT, DO NOT USE THE
DEVICE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!
