Special Features
Movement Sensitivity Adjustment
The movement sensitivity adjustment dial has been preset to level 2.5 which will suit most
situations. The highest sensitivity level is 5 (most sensitive) and the lowest sensitivity level
is 1 (least sensitive).
You may get false alarms if your baby is in a very deep sleep or has moved to the edge of the crib. If you get false
alarms due to these circumstances, you should increase the sensitivity level by using the sensitivity dial on the
back of the Nursery Unit.
NOTE: Adjust the sensitivity level if you receive false alarms and you have followed the advice in the
Troubleshooting section for false alarms. Make a note of the position of the sensitivity dial before you change it
should you wish to return to that setting.
To increase the sensitivity level, start by increasing it by half a level. For example, if the level is currently at 2.5,
increase it to 3. Use the monitor as you normally would. If you still experience false alarms, increase it by another
half level. If you are still experiencing false alarms when you have reached level 5, please contact Graco
at 1-800-345-4109.
Because the Sensor Pad may detect movement from many sources from both inside and outside your baby’s
room, be sure all vibration sources are eliminated before changing the movement sensitivity level. Check to see if
the Sensor Pad is resting on a flat, firm surface. Place the crib near a solid supporting wall and away from strong
air currents. Do not use crib mobiles or accessories that may cause vibrations. Avoid contact with the crib when
monitor is in use.
To make sure you have avoided all external sources of vibration, take your baby out of the crib while the monitor is
on. If the alarm does not sound after you take your baby out of the crib, the sensitivity level may need to be
decreased. To decrease the sensitivity level, adjust by half a level by going from 2.5 to 2. If you are still
experiencing this problem when the level is set to 1, please contact Graco at 1-800-345-4109.
Sound Lights
The Parents’ Unit features Sound Lights so you can “see” your baby’s sounds if background
noise prevents you from hearing your baby. As the sounds get louder, more lights illuminate.
Optional “Tic” Feature (Page. 9)
When the “Tic” feature is selected, the Parents’ Unit will continuously tick as your baby’s movement is detected by
the Sensor Pad. If no movement is detected, the ticking will stop. If you do not want to hear the ticking, slide the
switch to the “Tic Off” position.
Movement Indicators
The Movement Indicator Light is located only on the Nursery Unit. When the Nursery Unit is set to “Sound &
Movement” or “Tic Off,” the Movement Indicator Light will flash green with your baby's every movement. The
flashing green light will let you know that movement is being detected. This will allow you to check on your
sleeping baby in the dark without disturbing her.
