Baby unit
Parent unit
We advise you to use the baby unit connected to the mains. To guarantee
automatic power backup in case of mains failure, you can insert four 1.5V AA
alkaline batteries (not included).
Do not use rechargeable batteries. The baby unit does not have a charging
function and rechargeable batteries discharge slowly when they are not in
use.
The parent unit runs on a battery pack that is supplied with the baby
monitor. Charge the parent unit before you use it for the first time and when
the batteries are low.
Please note that for the SCD730, you have to charge the parent unit for
the full 10 hours to have a cordless operating time of 18 hours.
Note: When you start using the baby monitor, it takes 4 charge and
discharge cycles before the battery pack reached its full capacity.

English
Using the baby monitor
Positioning the baby monitor
Keep the baby unit out of the reach of the baby. Never place the
baby unit inside the baby’s bed or playpen.
-
Because the cord of the baby unit presents a potential strangulation
hazard, make sure that the baby unit and its cord are at least 1 metre/3.5
feet away from your baby.
-
To prevent a high-pitched sound from one or both units, make sure that
the parent unit is at least 1 metre/3.5 feet away from the baby unit.
Linking parent unit and baby unit
1 Press and hold the button on the baby unit for 2 seconds until the
power-on light goes on.
2 Press and hold the button on the parent unit for 2 seconds until the
display lights up. The 'link' light on the parent unit starts flashing red and
the message 'I AM LINKING' appears on the display.
When the parent unit and baby unit are linked, the 'link' light turns solid
green. The signal strength indicator and the message 'LINKED' appear on
the display.
If no connection is established, the message 'NOT LINKED' is displayed
and the parent unit starts and the parent unit starts to beep.
What to do if no link is established
-
If the parent unit is out of range, place it closer to the baby unit, but not
closer than 1 metre/3.5 feet.
-
If the baby or parent unit is too close, <2 m/6.5 ft away from another
DECT appliance (e.g. a cordless phone), switch off this appliance or move
the unit away from this appliance.
-
If the baby unit is switched off, switch it on.
Operating range
-
The operating range is 330 metres/1000 feet outdoors and up to 50
metres/150 feet indoors.
-
The operating range of the baby monitor varies depending on the
surroundings and factors that cause interference. Wet and moist
materials cause so much interference that the range loss is up to 100%.
For interference from dry materials, see the table below.
Dry materials Material thickness Loss of range
Wood, plaster, cardboard,
glass (without metal, wires
or lead)
Brick, plywood < 30 cm (12 in) 5-35 %
Reinforced concrete < 30 cm (12 in) 30-100 %
< 30 cm (12 in) 0-10 %
