Setting Up Your Mila Baby Monitor
Charge the Monitor for 7 hours and Plug in the Camera
IMPORTANT
We recommend placing your camera(s) no more than 5ft. away from your baby, as
audio may not be detected if placed further. For a safe setup, never mount
cameras directly above the crib or baby. Power cords must be kept at least
3ft. away from the crib and baby’s reach at all times.
TIP: Ensure the camera’s temperature sensor is unobstructed. When the camera is placed near a window or air vent, the accuracy of the temperature rating may be affected.
Using Your Mila Baby Monitor
Viewing Modes
Navigate to the Menu and select Viewing Modes. Please note that Multi-Camera Views require two or more paired cameras.

-
Full Screen View

Multi-Camera Views

TIP: When you press the orange Sleep/Wake button, Mila will not display any video or play any audio. -
Audio Only
This mode turns OFF your display and keeps audio playback from your cameras ON. If you have multiple cameras paired, you’ll only hear audio for the Active camera. In Sequence Mode, audio will cycle through all paired cameras every 5 seconds. -
Voice Activated
This mode puts your video display to sleep and wakes your monitor for 20 seconds when noise is detected at the camera. If two or more cameras are paired, your monitor will wake up to the specific camera that detects noise.
The sensitivity of the camera can be adjusted. Low: If you only want to hear loud screaming or crying, Medium: If you want to hear babbling and talking, or High: If you want to hear everything from low whispers to crying.
Lullabies
Navigate to the Menu, select Lullabies, and select the camera you want to play Lullabies or White Noise from. Each camera can play a different lullaby.
-
Lullaby
Choose between three classic lullabies, soothing nature sounds or white noise. -
Sound Activation
When turned ON, your selected lullaby will play for five minutes when Mila detects noise from your baby. -
Duration
Select ON to play a lullaby continuously or choose a preset duration. Duration does not need to be turned ON for Sound Activation to be active. -
Camera Volume
Adjust the volume output from the selected camera. This will apply to the Lullabies and Talk-to-Baby™ volume.
TIP: While using Lullabies in the Voice Activated Monitor Mode, the microphone is muted and will not activate for noise in the room. We recommend using Always On or Audio Only while playing Lullabies from the camera.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I change which camera I am viewing?
Press and hold the button to switch your Active camera. When doing this in
Split or Quad Screen View, the Active camera will have an orange border.
TIP: Audio playback, Talk to Baby™, and pan & tilt functions will only affect the Active camera.
Why can’t I hear audio from one of my cameras while in Split Screen Monitor
Mode?
While in Split or Quad Screen and Always On Monitor Mode, Mila will only play
audio from the Active camera.
Note: The Active camera will have an orange border. If you need to detect
audio from all cameras, we recommend using Sequence Mode. This will cycle
through each camera in Full-Screen every 5 seconds.
Why is the temperature on my monitor different from the thermostat in my
home?
Mila’s thermostat is located on the camera (See Camera Buttons & Functions
page). If your camera is placed near a window or air vent, the accuracy of the
temperature rating my be affected. When moving the camera, it may take some
time for Mila’s thermostat to adjust to the temperature of the new location.
Why can’t I hear my baby through the monitor when they’re making noise?
Sometimes Mila’s camera is too far away from your baby to detect the sounds
being made. We recommend placing your camera within 3-5ft. from your little
one for the best audio performance. While using Lullabies in Voice Activation
Monitor Mode, the microphone on that camera is muted. This means you will not
be notified if additional noise is detected. If playing Lullabies/White Noise
from Mila’s camera, we recommend using Always On or Audio Only.
How can I make my Mila battery last longer?
The less time your screen is turned on, the more battery life you will be able
to preserve. We recommend using Voice Activation when possible so that you’re
only being notified when your little one makes a sound. There are options for
setting the sensitivity of your Voice Activation. Using the Low Sensitivity
will reduce the number of times Mila wakes up, only notifying you when noises
such as crying or screaming are detected. Mila also features an Audio Only
mode if you wish to have constant audio, but do not need to see your little
one.
My video stream has gone black. How can I fix it?
Though rare, it is possible that other wireless devices in your home may
interfere with Mila. If this happens, just press and hold the Menu button for
10 seconds and your video should resume.
