Thank you for choosing myHummy®. Safety is the most important thing for us. Please read this manual carefully before using the product.
BABY SLEEP SAFETY
It is not recommended for babies to sleep with soft toys inside their cots or bassinets. We suggest placing the myHummy next to your child’s cot or bassinet or using it as a cot attachment. myHummy bears have two types of openings: one with zip and one with velcro. The zip to pocket for Humming device is located on the back of the teddy bear, under the seam of its clothes. The myHummy bears feature a secure lock, preventing the child from getting into the humming device. The zip can be opened by gently pushing the slider until the pocket is open and you can insert the humming device. When the humming device is inside the bear there is no need to take it out again until you need to change the batteries or wash the bear. The device can be controlled by pressing the teddy bear. The velcro to open the pocket for the sound device can be found at the back of the bear, underneath the seam of its clothing. Once in, the sound device can be operated from within the bear and needs to be taken out only to change batteries or wash the teddy.
GENERAL INFORMATION
myHummy® is a product designed to soothe and improve the sleep of babies and young children. The electronic sound device (the ‘Humming Heart’) generates white and pink noises which have been shown to enhance sleep. They have a soothing effect on babies and help them sleep better by masking other sounds. Babies associate these sounds with warmth, comfort and security they experienced while in their mother’s womb. Every myHummy emits 5 types of sound: white noise, pink noise, amniotic fluid with heartbeat, ocean waves, and rainfall. All settings can be changed by pressing the multi-function button on the device.
BEFORE THE FIRST AND EACH SUBSEQUENT USE
Before giving the product to a child, always check all of its parts for defects. If any defects are found, stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer. Packaging is not part of the product and is not a toy. Before giving the toy to a child, remove all packaging.
INSTALLATION OF THE DEVICE IN THE PLUSH
The playback device should only be turned on when it is in the pocket of the plush. To insert the device, unclute Velcro and place the device in your pocket. Velcro must always be closed so that the playback device does not get into a child’s hands.
How to use your myHummy (quick guide):
- switch on and off: press the button for 1 second and release
- change the sound: double click.
- change volume: long press and release.
POWER SUPPLY
The Humming Heart is powered by three AAA 1.5V batteries or three AAA 1.2V rechargeable batteries. Batteries and charger are not included.
Batteries must be installed and replaced by an adult.
- use brand new batteries.
- do not mix batteries of different brands or types as they are not equally charged.
- only use alkaline AAA batteries with nominal voltage of 1.5V or rechargeable NiMH batteries with nominal voltage of 1.2V, i.e. Panasonic Eneloop BK-4MCCE or Li-ion batteries with nominal voltage of 1.5V
Replace batteries if:
- sound quality deteriorates;
- sound volume drops;
- sound cuts off before the desired time;
- the sound device cannot be switched on;
- the Sleep Sensor does not work.
BEFORE USE
- open the flap on the sound device using a cross-head screwdriver (recommended size: PZ1). Using the wrong sized screwdriver or trying to over-tighten can damage the screw.
- insert three AAA 1.5V batteries or 1.2V rechargeable batteries – please pay special attention to the correct position and polarity (+ / – marks). Batteries should always be inserted from the coil spring’s side (by compressing the spring). Check the batteries for damage before use. Damage to the insulating film of the battery may cause a short circuit and severe heating of the battery and or the spring.
- carefully screw the flap back on to ensure the batteries are out of children’s reach.
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
To remove the batteries, gently move them towards the spring (compressing the spring) and lift the battery. Never remove the batteries from the side with the spring as this may cause damage to the spring or the battery. Under no circumstances should you attempt to pry the battery out with other objects as the battery may become damaged and unsafe. Damage to the insulating film of the battery may cause a short circuit and severe heating of the battery and/or the spring. Always check the batteries for mechanical damage before use.
SWITCHING ON MYHUMMY
Press the multi-function button for approximately 1 second and release. Your myHummy will start to emit sound. In manual control mode, turning the Humming Heart on will also activate the Sleep Sensor (MC models). Other functions of the multi-function button are described further along in this leaflet.
ADJUSTING THE VOLUME
Your myHummy has approximately 15 volume levels (depending on the chosen sound). To change the volume, press and hold the button until the sound reaches the desired volume and release the button. Repeat to change the volume up and down. The sound device will store your previously selected sound and volume level when it automatically restarts or is manually turned back on. Volume level returnes to default after the batteries have been exchanged.
CHANGING THE SOUND
To change the sound, press the button twice quickly.
SLEEP SENSOR (MC MODELS)
The sound will automatically start to fade out after the device has been functioning for about 30 minutes (when activated manually). After fading out, the Humming Heart will enter stand-by mode with the Sleep Sensor mode on. If your baby starts to cry, the same sound will gently fade in until it reaches the previous volume level. The sound will play for another 60 minutes. This process will continue for the next 12 hours or until switched off. To turn the Sleep Sensor off, turn the sound device off by pressing the multi-function button.
