1. Description of device
1.1 Proper use
This baby monitor Eco Control Audio 500
allows you to listen in to your baby or small
child 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 carers.
1.2 Description of function
The baby unit 1 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 8.
The parent unit 8 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 40 m indoors and up to
250 m outdoors (in open country). The
babyphone’s reception will vary depending
on its surroundings. Thick walls or metal can
reduce the range.
The babyphone 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 17 button to set the transmission
sensitivity to its maximum (=level 5). On this
setting the baby unit is continually switched
on (see "6.3 Using the VOX function to
adjust the transmission sensitivity" on
page 28).
If you do not want to hear any sounds at all
you can use the Vol - 11 button to set the
volume to mute. In this case only the LED
display 16 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 "4.5Eco-Mode" on page 26 and in
"6.3Using the VOX function to adjust the
transmission sensitivity" on page 28.
1.3 Approval
The baby monitor operates at a frequency of
2.4 GHz. This device may be used in all EU

comply with the specific national
