This feature allows you to listen in on a room where another
handset is located, allowing you to easily monitor from
different areas of the house or even while away from home. The
monitored handset (placed in a baby’s room, for example) will
automatically call the monitoring handset or the phone number
stored when it detects sound.
This feature is also available between a handset and the base
for models with a base keypad.
- Before using this feature, we recommend that you test this
feature and adjust the baby monitor sensitivity as needed
especially if you plan to monitor from outside.
- This feature should not be used as a substitute for a
medical or caregiver’s supervision. It is the caregiver’s
responsibility to stay close enough to handle any eventuality.
- If the unit is connected to a PBX system, you cannot set
the baby monitor.
- During the monitoring mode, battery consumption is faster
than usual. We recommend leaving the monitored handset on the
base unit or charger.
- The monitored handset never rings while it is being
monitored. If the base unit is placed near the monitored
handset, we recommend turning off the base unit ringer volume.
