Parent unit
1. Plug the mains power cable into the socket marked
on the back of the Parent unit charger.
Connect the other end to the mains power and switch on.
2. Remove the battery compartment cover and insert the 2 x AA
rechargeable batteries into the battery compartment on the
Parent unit and replace the battery compartment cover as
shown. You should always ensure you have inserted batteries
in the Parent unit.
3. Slot the Parent unit into the charger, the red charging light
comes on. Charge the batteries for 16 hours before switching
on the Parent unit.
IMPORTANT
Your BT Baby Monitor 100 is designed
to be an aid and should not be used as
a substitute for responsible and proper
adult supervision.
Make sure the Baby unit, Parent unit
and mains adapter cable are kept out
of reach of your baby – at least one
metre away.
Never place the Baby unit inside your
baby’s cot, bed or playpen.
Never cover your Parent or Baby units
(e.g. with clothes, towels or blankets).
Never use or place your Parent or Baby
units in moist places or near water.
If travelling abr
oad, make sure that the
voltage shown on the mains power adapter
corresponds to the local mains power
before connecting to the power supply.
There is a risk of explosion if the batteries
are replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to
the instructions.
Always dispose of batteries in
accordance with applicable waste
disposal regulations, never in your
household rubbish.
Battery performance - Parent unit
Rechargeable batteries in the
Parent unit give up to 14 hours
continuous performance.
Please not
e however, that new
batteries do not reach full capacity
until they have been in normal use
for several days.
If you experience any problems, please call the Helpline on
0808 100 6554*
8796 Baby Monitor 100 UG [Vtech 2] 27/5/08 13:02 Page 5
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.
Battery low warning – Parent unit
When the batteries are low –
appr
oximately within 1 hour and 30
minutes of running out – the Parent
unit light will come on.
If the batteries are completely flat the
Parent unit will switch off.
WARNING
The re-chargeable battery icon in the
batter
y compartment means that only
re-chargeable batteries can be used.
Never use non-rechargeable batteries
in your Parent unit. Use only the
recommended type – 2 x AA
rechargeable (1300mAh NiMH)
batteries – using other types could
permanently damage your unit.
Charge the batteries in accordance with
the instructions given in this user guide.
The Parent unit can still be used when
it is in the charger.
Temperature range
The features on your BT Baby Monitor
100 have been designed to work
normally at any temperature between
0
o
C and 40oC.
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.
Connect the other end to the mains power and switch on.
Using batteries
Your Baby unit also works on battery power, so that you can
use it even when you are not near to a mains power socket or
during a power cut.
1. Using your finger or a coin, turn the battery lock on the back
of the Baby unit anticlockwise so the groove is vertical then
lift off the cover.
2. Insert 4 x AA alkaline batteries (not supplied) as shown.

3. Replace the battery cover, turning the battery lock into the
vertical position again to lock it.
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 adapters may become warm to the touch. This is
normal and not something to be concerned about.
In the event of power failure, when the power is restored all
your settings will remain unchanged.
