4.1 Proper use
This baby monitor Easy Protect Plus allows you to listen in
to your baby or small children in the nursery. It can also be
used for sound-only monitoring of the elderly.
This device is intended only for dry environments. It is not
suitable for use in wetrooms or outdoors in wet weather.
This device is intended for use in private households. It is
not intended for commercial use.
This device is intended as a supplementary aid. It is in no
way a substitute for the physical presence and attention of
parents, babysitters or caregivers.
4.2 Description of function
The baby unit 15 is set up in the room that is to be
monitored. It registers the sounds in the room and sends it
wirelessly to the parent unit 1.
The parent unit 1 has a built-in rechargeable battery so
that you can always set it up where you can see it. The
battery is recharged using the supplied mains adapter.
The limiting distance between baby and parent unit is
about 50 m indoors and up to 300 m outdoors (in open
country). The babyphone's reception will vary depending
on its surroundings. Thick walls or metal can reduce the
range.
This baby monitor has an integrated Eco-Mode function
that not only saves energy, but also minimizes the high-
frequency radiation in the nursery to zero while the baby is
sleeping. This means that your baby is not continually
exposed to radiation that is unnecessary during quiet
sleep. It furthermore has a Full-Eco-Control System that
always ensures and permanently checks that parent unit
and baby unit are linked. In case of a lost connection
parents will be alarmed immediately.
5.1 Eco-Mode
The Eco-Mode is automatically activated in VOX Level 1-4
(see "9.2 Using the VOX function to adjust the transmission
sensitivity" on page 57). Is the mode activated, the
transmissions between the parent unit and baby unit are
limited.
The device automatically switches back to
transmission mode as soon as your baby makes a noise
that exceeds your selected sound threshold (VOX levels 1 -
4).
You can see when the Eco-Mode has been activated
because the LED indicator 7 on the parent unit as well as
the LED 17 on the baby unit start flashing green. You can
see when Eco-Mode has been deactivated because both
LED indicators show a steady green light. VOX Level 5

5. Eco-Mode and Full-Eco-Control
The baby monitor has an Eco-Mode, in which the
transmitter (baby unit) automatically switches to standby as
soon as your baby is sleeping peacefully. Depending on the
sensitivity setting, it will not switch back on until your baby
begins making a noise or starts to cry.
If you want to be sure of hearing every single sound from
the nursery you can use the VOX button 4 to set the
transmission sensitivity to its maximum (=level 5). On this
setting the baby unit is continually switched on (see
"9.2 Using the VOX function to adjust the transmission
sensitivity" on page 57).
If you do not want to hear any sounds at all you can use the
Vol - button 5 to set the volume to mute. In this case only
the LEDs for sound indication 2 will show you if your baby
is making noise.
Activating Eco-Mode minimises the high-frequency
radiation in the children's room. In this mode the baby unit
merely sends a brief signal to the parent unit every
30 seconds to test the connection. If the parent unit is out
of range, the parents will be alerted by a beep.
You will find more information about Eco-Mode in "5. Eco-
Mode and Full-Eco-Control" on page 53.
indicates a constant link between parent unit and baby unit
without an Eco-Mode option.
5.2 Special Features during activated Eco-Mode
While the Eco-Mode is activated and your baby is
peacefully assleep, the special features such as the
lullabies, the nightlight or the talk-back function are
deactivated and can not be changed. This is a safety
setting to avoid that you may wake your baby by accident.
However, the special functions can be changed with a 30
sec delay during the link check of the Full-Eco Control. This
way you can turn off the nightlight even when the Eco-
Mode is activated.
• Activate or deactivate the nightlight or lullabies by
pressing the according button:
– The function will not start immediately and the icon
on the display starts flashing. This is the indication
that the Eco-Mode is activated.
– If you do want to use one of the features even
though your baby is sleeping, simply wait for the
next link-check and it will be activated.
Note: The Talk-Back function is also deactivated during the
Eco-Mode which will be indicated with a double beep.
