Using a handset as a
room monitor
When the room monitor function is acti-
vated and the handset detects a specific
noise level, the handset automatically calls a
destination phone number. That phone
number can be either another handset or an
external number.
The room monitor call to an external num-
ber stops after around 90 seconds. The room
monitor call to an internal number (handset)
stops after approx. 3 minutes (depending on
the base station). When 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, incom-
ing calls to the handset are indicated with-
out a ringer and are only shown on the
screen. The display and keypad are not illu-
minated and advisory tones are also turned
off. When the room monitor function is acti-
vated, all of the handset keys are deactivated
except for the Display keys.
If you accept an incoming call, the room
monitor is suspended for the duration of the
call, but the function remains activated.
If you deactivate then reactivate the hand-
set, the room monitor remains activated.

Warning!
u Always check the operation of the
room monitor before use. For exam-
ple, test its sensitivity. Check the
connection if you are forwarding the
room monitor to an outside number.
u When the function is switched on, the
handset's operating time is consider-
ably reduced. If necessary, place the
handset in the charging cradle.
u Ideally, the handset should be posi-
tioned 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet) away
from the baby. The microphone must
be directed toward the baby.
u The connection to which the room
monitor is forwarded must not be
blocked by an activated voice mail.
