AC017: How can I check my monitor`s sensitivity level is correct for my baby`s mattress

Firstly, the sensitivity level of the monitor should be at 2 to begin. If not please adjust to this level and proceed with the following:

• Switch the Nursery Unit ON
• Gently place your hand in the furthest corner of the mattress & and wait for 20 seconds
• *If the movement alarm does not sound after 20 seconds do the same in the 3 remaining corners
• Remove your hand from the mattress and step away from the cot. The Sensor Pad is sensitive enough to detect your movement if you are touching the cot
• After 20 seconds a series of continuous beeps (The Main Alarm) will sound from the Nursery Unit
• Place your hand on the mattress and after a few seconds the alarm will cease as the Sensor Pad will have detected your movement

*If the alarm sounds when you place your hand for 20 seconds in any of the corners please adjust the sensitivity by turning it up another level and repeat the Four Corner Test again

**If however the monitor does not alarm when you step away from the cot reduce the sensitivity down a level and repeat the Four Corner Test, keep adjusting this until the alarm sounds ensuring that movement is still detected in all four corners

Try the new setting over the next couple of nights to monitor this
