Troubleshooting This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently asked questions or contact the consumer care centre in your country. HOW TO USE / CONNECT THE UNITS Problem Solution Why doesn't the parent unit charge when I plug it in? Perhaps there is a battery error. Check the battery status light on the parent unit.
INDICATIONS ON THE PARENT UNIT Problem Solution Why can the charging time of the parent unit exceed 3 hours? The parent unit may be switched on during charging. When the display of the parent unit is constantly on, charging of the parent unit will take more time. Switch off the parent unit during charging to reduce the charging time. Perhaps temperature has exceeded the charging tolerance that could potentially cut off the charging circuit as a safety protection mechanism.
OPERATING TIME / RANGE Problem Solution Why does my baby monitor manage a much smaller distance than specified in this user manual? The specified operating range between the parent unit and baby unit is up to 400 meters / 1312 feet, and it's only valid outdoors in open air and in the line of sight. Depending on the surroundings and other disturbing factors, the operating range may be smaller (see the table in 'Operating range' chapter).
APP /SET UP Problem Solution I cannot set up the baby monitor. Each time I end up in the connection error screen. What is the matter? Make sure your smart device uses the same Wi-Fi network you want to connect the baby monitor to. Check the status light of the baby unit, if it is flashing red, the Wi-Fi password entered was wrong. Restart the set up process. Re-enter the Wi-Fi password and make sure that the password is correct.
APP /SET UP Problem Solution Why does the app not Check if the baby monitor is connected to the Wi-Fi network. The status notify me that the baby is light on the front of the baby monitor must be solid white. crying? The sound threshold for notification may have been set too high. In that case, the app will only notify you when the baby produces a lot of sound. Open the app setting to lower the sound threshold to ensure that you are notified sooner.
APP /SET UP Problem Solution Do I have to keep the app open to monitor my baby? No, the app can monitor in the background while you do other things. Switch on background monitoring from the app's settings menu. You will then receive notifications on-screen when your baby makes sound. Can I use more baby monitors in the same app? You can connect to multiple baby monitors to the app, but you can only view the video from one baby monitor at a time.
