Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to
a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage.
You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the

When you are not going to use the baby monitor for some time, store the parent unit, the baby unit and the

Below are the questions most frequently asked about the soother. If you cannot find the answer to your question,
please contact TecHelp on 1300 369 193.
Why does the baby
monitor not respond
normally?
Try the following (in the order listed) for common cure:
1. Disconnect the power to the baby units and the parent unit.
2. Wait a few seconds before connecting power back to the baby units and the parent unit.
3. Turn on the baby units and the parent unit.
4. Wait for the parent unit to synchronize with the baby units. Allow up to one minute
for this to take place.
Why don’t the
power-on light of the
baby unit and parent unit
go on when I switch on
the units?
Perhaps the parent unit is not connected to the power. Insert the appliance plug into
the parent unit and put the adaptor in a wall socket. Then, slide the ON/OFF to
switch on the parent unit and to establish connection with the baby unit.
Perhaps the baby unit is not connected to the power. Insert the appliance plug into the
baby unit and put the adaptor in a wall socket. Then, slide the ON/OFF switch to ON to
switch on the baby unit and to establish connection with the parent unit.
Why doesn’t my parent
unit charge while
connected to AC power?
Make sure the power is not controlled by a wall switch.
Why is my screen in black
and white?
The screen is in black and white during night-time or in a dark room when the night
vision feature is activated. This is normal.
Why do I get glare or
blurry display on my
screen when viewing my
baby at night?
During night-time or in a dark room, the surroundings and other interfering factors,
like lightings, objects, colors and backgrounds may affect the image quality on your
parent unit screen. Adjust the baby unit’s angle or place the baby unit at a higher level
to prevent glare and blurry display.
Why does the baby
monitor produce a
high-pitched noise?
The parent unit and baby units may be too close to each other.
• Move the parent unit away from the baby units until the noise stops; OR
• Turn down the volume of your parent unit.
Why does the parent unit
beep?
The baby units may be out of range. Move the parent unit closer to the baby units (but
not less than 1 metre).
The parent unit may not have enough charge for the parent unit to perform normally.
Charge the battery in the parent unit for up to 11 hours.
The temperature of your baby’s room may be too high or too low.
Why don’t I hear a
sound/Why can’t I hear
my baby cry?
The parent unit speaker volume may be too low. Press VOL to increase the volume, or
use the parent unit menu to change sound sensitivity level to the highest level (level 5).
Why can’t I establish a
connection? Why is the
connection lost every now
and then? Why are there
sound interruptions?
The baby units may be out of range. Move the parent unit closer to the baby units (but
not less than 1 metre).
Other electronic products may cause interference with your baby monitor. Try installing
your baby monitor as far away from these electronic devices as possible.
If you power on only one baby unit, your parent unit may display and the POWER
LED light flashes. Switch to the baby unit you have powered on via menu.
