5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the monitor and camera surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid extreme temperatures and fully charge the parent unit regularly.
• Cable Management: Ensure power cables are not tangled or placed where they can be tripped over or damaged.

6. Troubleshooting

6.1 Monitor Not Working Normally or Performing Erratically

• Power Supply: Confirm proper installation and that the power supply is securely plugged in. Only use the Simyke power supply provided. Ensure the electrical outlet is working and not controlled by a wall switch.
• Units On: Make sure both the parent unit and baby camera are turned on. Verify that the blue light on the back of the camera is illuminated.
• Range/Interference: The parent unit may be too far from the baby unit, or other equipment (e.g., Wi-Fi devices like laptops, smartphones, routers, tablets) may be affecting the connection. Try placing the parent unit at least 3 feet away from Wi-Fi devices. Move the parent unit closer to the baby unit or away from Wi-Fi devices to find better reception. Units should not be closer than 3 feet apart.
• Reset: Try resetting both the parent and baby units:
  1. Disconnect power to both units.
  2. Wait approximately 15 seconds.
  3. Reconnect adapters to both units.
  4. Wait one minute for the devices to reconnect.
• Noise/Static: Noise static and erratic performance may be caused by nearby electronic equipment and other cordless devices using the same frequency. Separate your baby monitor from these devices as much as possible.

6.2 Unable to Scan QR Code to Connect to Network (for App Viewing)

• Camera Power: Check if the baby camera is properly plugged in and turned on.
• Pairing Mode: Verify if the baby camera has entered network pairing mode normally.
• QR Code: Ensure the app can normally generate the correct QR code screenshot.
• Scan Confirmation: Check if the camera prompts successful code scanning.
• Error Message: Note any specific error messages if the QR code cannot be read or connection fails.
• Wi-Fi Band: Confirm that your router is operating on a 2.4G frequency band (currently only supports 2.4G Wi-Fi).
• Connection Timeout: If the camera scans the code normally but prompts a network connection timeout, reconfirm your router is 2.4G and the phone's QR code is correct. Try restarting the baby camera and re-entering pairing mode to scan the code.
