How do I use talk-back on the Philips Avent Video Baby Monitor?
Use the talk-back function to speak to your baby through the baby unit.
- Press the talk-back button on the parent unit.
- Speak clearly into the microphone on the front of the parent unit from a distance of 15–30 cm.
- Press the talk-back button again when you are finished.
Note: While talk-back is active, the parent unit cannot receive sounds from the baby unit. If a lullaby or soothing sound is playing, it will pause during talk-back and continue when talk-back is turned off. The talk-back function switches off automatically after 5 minutes.
