Running rechargeable batteries right down at least once a week will help them last as long as possible. The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, so reducing the performance time of the Parent unit. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New batteries can be obtained from the BT Baby Monitor Helpline 0808 100 6554*.
The Parent unit rechargeable batteries will lose charge over a period of time, even if switched off.

Charge the batteries in accordance with the instructions given in this user guide.

Baby unit
Once your Parent unit has been fully charged:
1. Plug the power cable into the socket marked on the back of the Baby unit.

2. Insert 4 x AA Alkaline batteries (not supplied) as shown.

Check the connection
When both Units are switched on, the green link lights on both Units will come on.
If the link between the Units is broken at any time, the link lights will turn red and flash slowly.
At the Parent unit, you will also hear an alert signal (3 beeps every 30 seconds) to warn you that there is no communication between the Units. If this happens, check that the mains power is plugged in and switched on at the Baby unit.
Also check that the Units are within range of one another

During continual use the Baby unit and Parent unit Charger power adaptors may become warm to the touch. This is normal and not something to be concerned about.
