Battery Performance
Rechargeable batteries in the parent unit will last
up to 8 hours in normal use. Please note that new
batteries do not reach full capacity until they have
been in normal use for several days.
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 Oricom.
www.oricom.com.au or 1300 889 785.
The parent unit rechargeable batteries will lose
charge over a period of time, even if switched off.
Battery Low Warning
When the batteries are low the parent unit will emit
a low battery alert and the low battery indicator on
the unit will turn red. Place the parent unit back on
the charger to charge the batteries. To speed up
the charging process, turn the parent unit off when
charging if it is not being used.
You can still use the parent unit to monitor your baby
even when the batteries are low, provided it remains
connected to the charger to re-charge the batteries.
Replacing the Batteries
To replace the batteries, simply remove the battery
cover on the parent unit and remove the batteries.
