Testing Operation
You must conduct this quick performance test daily.
• The performance test should be conducted while baby is not in
cot and if there are any fans, air conditioning units, cot mobile,
humidier, ceiling projector etc in the babies room, please
ensure you conduct the daily performance test with these
devices turned on if applicable.
• Turn device on and leave the room.
• Ensure that alarm goes off within 20 seconds (due to absence of
breathing movements).
• In the case that the alarm does not sound within 20 seconds refer to
troubleshooting on page 14.
• The alarm may sound with or without preliminary ticking.
• Check that alarm can be heard in all locations throughout the home or
place of care.
• This performance test must be conducted every day.
IMPORTANT: You should not rely on Babysense2 in any location
throughout the home or place of care where the alarm cannot be
heard.
Babysense2 is an exceedingly sensitive device which monitors baby's
breathing movements through the mattress during sleep. There are two
main causes of malfunction.
Technical malfunction
In order to minimize technical problems, follow installation and operation
instructions carefully.
Potential environmental disturbances
Due to the extreme sensitivity of Babysense2, it can be inuenced by
fans, wind, air conditioning, humidier, cot mobile, ceiling projector etc.
Such environmental effects could be picked up by the sensors on a
similar level to that of breathing movements, thus preventing or delaying
alarm activation.
To ensure your Babysense2 is operating correctly, you must undertake the
required daily performance test (as set out in this user guide on page 11).
