Depending on the purchased version, the LCD language might not be
English on start-up. Please see chapter 4.3 on page 8 how to change the
language of your DBX-88 eco.
1 ECO MODE
This Alecto DBX-88 ECO babyphone is equipped with an unique ECO
mode. Already in normal operation mode, the baby-unit stops transmis-
sion when the baby is not crying. In Full Eco mode it even suppresses
the controlling signals between the baby-unit and the parent unit, so no
transmitting at all.
Next to the Full eco mode, you can set the output power. In case you are
at home with your baby not far away, you can set the babyphone in half
range mode, with low transmitting power and reduced power consump-
tion. In case the baby is not close to you, you may switch to full range.
Attention: once the baby produces noise, the baby-unit is activated and
contacts the parent unit. This causes a small delay which means that
short sounds from the baby may not be heard by you. In case you really
want to hear all sounds from the baby room, you must set the sensitivity
to maximum (see chapter 4.6); with this setting the baby-unit is constantly
active.
