Using a handset as 
a room monitor

If the room monitor is activated, a previ-

ously stored destination number is called 

as soon as soon as a set noise level is 

reached. You can store an internal or 

external number on your handset as the 

destination number. 
The room monitor call to an external 

number stops after approx. 90 seconds. 

The room monitor call to an internal 

number (handset) stops after approx. 3 

minutes (depending on the base station). 

While the room monitor is activated, all 

keys are locked except the end call key. 

The handset's speaker is muted. 
When the room monitor is activated, 

incoming calls to the handset are indi-

cated 

without a ringtone

 and are only 

shown on the screen. The display and keys 

are not illuminated and advisory tones are 

also turned off.
If you accept an incoming call, the room 

monitor mode is suspended for the dura-

tion of the call, the function 

remains

 acti-

vated.
If you switch off the handset, the room 

monitor mode is ended. You must reacti-

vate the function after switching on the 

handset again.

Note:

–

You should always check the operation 

of the room monitor before use. For 

example, test its sensitivity. Check the 

connection, if you are diverting the room 

monitor to an outside number.

– The active room monitor function consider-

ably reduces the operating time of the 

handset. Place the handset in the charging 

cradle if necessary. This ensures that the 

battery does not discharge.

– Ideally the handset should be positioned 1 

to 2 metres away from the baby. The micro-

phone must be directed towards the baby. 

– The connection to which the room monitor 

is diverted must not be blocked by an acti-

vated answering machine.
