BATTERY CHARGING
IMPORTANT:
Parent Unit will not operate unless rechargeable battery
pack is installed first. To maximize battery life, charge a new recharge-
able battery pack in Parent Unit for 12+ hours before first use. You may
operate Parent Unit with an AC adapter while charging batteries.
With power on: When plugging in Parent Unit, Safety 1st screen will come on for
2 seconds, the flashing green battery icon in bottom left corner of the screen
indicates charging. This will continue during charging cycle.
After approximately 2 minutes, video screen turns to black. Press the Video
On/Off button on top of Parent Unit to resume screen viewing.
Once charging is complete, the green battery icon (with all 4 bars illuminated) in
left bottom corner of the screen indicates the battery is fully charged.
LOW BATTERY
With power on and unit operating on battery power, the green battery icon, in
left bottom corner of the screen, turns to yellow (1 bar illuminated) to let the user
know the battery is getting low.
When the yellow battery icon turns to red (no bars), it indicates that the battery
is dying. You need to plug in the Parent Unit within 5 to 10 minutes after red
battery icon appears or battery power will fail. When the red battery icon and link
indicator/out of range icon appears on black screen, the battery power will fail in
approximately 5 minutes.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BATTERY LIFE
A Fully charged battery being used with both video and audio typically lasts
approximately 6 hours. During the last 5 minutes, the large flashing red battery
will start flashing. You need to plug in the Parent Unit within 5 to 10 minutes after
red battery starts to flash or battery power will fail.
Rechargeable batteries are prone to what is referred to as the "memory effect".
What this means is that if a battery is repeatedly only partially discharged before
recharging, the battery "forgets" that it has the capacity to further discharge all
the way down. To illustrate: If on a regular basis you fully charge your battery and
then use only 50% of its capacity before the next recharge, eventually the battery
will become unaware of its extra 50% capacity which has remained unused.
The battery will remain functional, but only at 50% of its original capacity.
The way to avoid the "memory effect" is to fully cycle (fully charge and then
fully discharge) the battery at least once every two to three months. Simply
leaving the device in the ON position and letting it run can discharge batteries
completely. This will help insure your battery remains healthy. Once discharged,
recharge the battery completely according to the manufacturer's instructions.
