every 30 seconds that the parent unit is still
nearby (link check). If at any time you are out
of range, this is indicated on the parent unit
by changing the colour of the LED
to red
and beeping.
Note:
Check the range of your babyphone
before using Eco-Mode. Make sure that the
two units are always within range, so that
you can hear your baby.
Information displayed in Eco-Mode
Special features of Eco-Mode
Eco-Mode reduces the high-frequency
radiation from the baby unit to an absolute
minimum. This means that your baby is not
continually exposed to radiation that is
unnecessary during quiet sleep.
This also means that in Eco-Mode the
babyphone uses much less energy.
The nightlight, lullaby and talk-back
functions are temporarily deactivated in
Eco-Mode: while your baby is asleep these
functions would disturb him/her.
The nightlight and the lullabies can be
switched on in Eco-Mode only after a delay.
If you press the corresponding button in
Eco-Mode, you will initially see a flashing
symbol (musical note or lightbulb) on the
display of the parent unit. This indicates that
the selected function could disturb your
baby. You now have up to 30 seconds to
press the button again to leave the function
disabled. Otherwise, as soon as the next
link check is carried out, the function will be
executed and the nightlight or lullabies will
switch on automatically.
The talk-back function is deactivated in
Eco-Mode. If you try to use the talk-back
function in Eco-Mode, the flashing symbol
appears in the display and a double beep
signals that this function is deactivated.
Sound transmission in Eco-Mode
In Eco-Mode, no sounds are transmitted
that fail to reach the specified noise
threshold (see "6.6 Using the VOX function
to adjust the transmission sensitivity" on
page 37).
The device automatically switches to
transmission mode as soon as your baby
makes a noise that exceeds your selected
sound threshold (VOX levels
1
-
4). Eco-
Mode is deactivated immediately and the
connection indicator
stops flashing and
remains continuously lit.
At VOX level 5 the device transmits
continuously and Eco-Mode is deactivated.
If you want to check that everything is OK
while Eco-Mode is activated (although this
already indicates that your baby is sleeping
peacefully), you can deactivate Eco-Mode by
switching to permanent transmission mode:
1. press the
VOX
on the parent
unit
.
2. Then hold the
Vol +
button
down until
are lit.
Notes:
– It can take up to 30 seconds to
deactivate Eco-Mode.
– If you switch over to continuous
transmission mode, the device will not
automatically revert to Eco-Mode.
3. To return to Eco-Mode, press the button
VOX
on the parent unit, and then
repeatedly press
VOL - 14
until only from
1 to 4 LEDs
are lit.
