Ensure you read this user guide before installing and
using the product.
Babysense is a high quality, high sensitivity electronic
device which must be handled with care:
• Do not handle roughly, drop or throw.
• Follow the installation instruction carefully to
ensure that it is installed securely and correctly.
• Babysense is not a toy. Do not allow children of any
age to play with it.
• Do not put any additional baby or pet in the bed.
Babysense cannot be used for two infants in one bed.
• You must undertake the performance test daily of
the Babysense monitor (as set out on page 3).
• Do not operate vaporizer or ventilator directly
towards the bed.
• To avoid possible danger from sensor cords,
ensure that excess cords are pulled back under
the mattress, secured with the included cable tie
and are not visible or reachable.
• Install 4 new and identical size AA 1.5 volt batteries,
preferably alkaline.
• IMPORTANT: It is strongly advised that every
caregiver learn how to give first aid.
"Babysense" monitors and alerts, but cannot prevent
cessation of breathing. The responsibility for applying first
aid rests on caretakers. The "Babysense" senses breathing
movements and motion only, and cannot monitor
other occurrences. The purpose of the device is to alert
when stopping or slowing of breathing and
movement occur.
"Babysense" is a unique safety system which has helped
save infants, giving parents (or caretaker) assurance,
by enabling intervention in the event of irregular
breathing movement or distress, before it becomes
critical. There are a number of cautionary steps
which are internationally recommended for SAFE
SLEEPING:
* Always lay baby to sleep on his or her back.
* Refrain from smoking near or around baby.
* Avoid over-heating of baby's surrounding.
* Do not leave any objects near your baby that can
cause suffocation.
Babysense is an addition to these precautions.
"Babysense" is a home breathing movement monitor
for basically healthy infants up to one year of age,
and is not to be relied on for use with high-risk infants
requiring constant medical supervision.
"Babysense" continually detects baby's motion and
breathing movements, and will set off a sound and visual
alarm if movement stops for 20 seconds or if the
breathing rate slows to below 10 breaths per minute.
The system's non-touch sensor pads under the mattress
monitor baby's movement without restraining him.
1. Insert, in accordance with the markings, 4 new and
identical size AA 1.5 volt batteries, preferable alkaline.
Close the battery cover.
Note: For replacing the batteries, remove the battery
cover by inserting a flat scr ew driver into the
opening recess (see illustration 7).
Note: Please dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local waste regulations.
2. Place control unit holder on the base of the crib
or bed and in between two bars as shown in
illustration 1.
3. Make sure the sensitivity adjustor, located on the back
of the sensor pads, is positioned on level 3
(see illustration 2).
4. Sensor pad installation:
• When using for infant not yet able to crawl, place one
sensor pad as shown in illustration 3. Make sure the
sensor is placed underneath baby’s location in crib.

9. Place mattress firmly on top of sensor pads. If the
mattress cannot be in contact with the sensor pads,
or if the bed base is soft, padded or contains
springs, place extra plywood on the bed base, place
the sensor pads on the plywood and place the
mattress firmly on top.
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible danger from sensor
cords, ensure that excess cords are pulled back
under the mattress, secured with the included cable
tie and are not visible or reachable.

• When baby begins to crawl, and is able to move onto
areas not "covered" by a single sensor pad, attach the
second sensor and place the two sensors as shown in
illustration 3.
PLEASE NOTE: The sensors shall be placed with the
marking “THIS SIDE UP” facing upfront.
5. Pass the cord(s) of the sensor pad(s) through
special openings in the holder. (see illustration 4)
6. Attach end(s) of the cord(s) to the outlets
marked "SENSOR" on the back of control unit
(see illustration 5 and 6). When using one sensor
pad, attach to any “SENSOR” outlet.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not attach any cable to the
blocked socket, marked "DO NOT USE"
7. Should the design of the crib/bed not allow proper
installation with the control unit holder, please use the
optional hanging hook (see illustration 6) and hang the
control unit from the bottom edge of the crib.
8. Press control unit holder or hanging hook firmly
into slot in back of control unit (see illustration 5 and 6).
"Babysense" is a highly sensitive device which
monitors baby's breathing movements through the
mattress during sleep. There are two main causes of
malfunction - technical malfunctions and
malfunctions due to environmental factors.
In order to minimize technical problems, follow
installation and operation instructions carefully.
Due to the high sensitivity of "Babysense", it can
be influenced by fans, wind, air conditioning, and
so forth. 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.
Do not conduct performance test by picking up
baby out of bed and waiting for the alarm to sound
• The performance test should be conducted
while baby is not in bed.
• Turn device on and take two steps back from bed.
• Ensure that alarm goes off within 20 seconds
(due to absence of breathing movements).
• 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.
• In case that alarm does not sound within 20
seconds refer to troubleshooting at page 5.
• Performance test must be conducted daily.
Isolated cases of false alarms are possible. Check if caused
by faulty connection of the sensor pad(s) to the control
unit, connection of only one sensor pad when baby can
move off the immediate area, connection of two
sensor pads far apart from each other when baby not
crawling yet, or failure of the sensor pads to be directly
against the mattress.
In case of false alarms, kindly refer to troubleshooting
guide. If the problem cannot be solved, please
contact your nearest BABYSENSE representative.
Act immediately according to the following:
1. Approach the bed and check that baby is breathing.
Note pallor (color of skin), muscle tone and movement.
2. If baby does not seem normal, pinch baby's heel
and check that there is no cause for choking,
such as an object lodged in baby’s throat.
When breathing resumes, consult a doctor.
3. If breathing does not resume, apply first aid and seek
medical assistance immediately.
