HOW CHICCO BEBÈCARE EASY-TECH WORKS

Place the child on the seat and secure him with the restraint systems provided for the type of seat in use.
Use the clip (A) on the white casing of the equipment to attach the accessory preferably to the shoulder strap of the seat or to the diagonal portion of the seat belt ( Fig.2). Now completely close the equipment as indicated in Chapter 1.1, paragraph d), item 2.
Using instruction

When closed with the Chicco logo fully visible through the special window on the white outer shell, the user is notified that the product has been activated by means of a special wake-up acoustic signal.

This is followed by an intermittent sound that informs the user that the product is searching for the Bluetooth® signal from the smartphone. A “beep” notifies the user once the connection has been made successfully. Make sure that the state detected by the Chicco BebèCare APP is “connected – child seated.” From this moment on, the equipment is active and the presence of the child can be monitored through the Chicco BebèCare APP.

WARNING! If the connection does not occur within 20 seconds, the user is notified by a short acoustic signal (failed connection). If the device remains closed, Chicco BebèCare easy-tech automatically continues searching for the smartphone Bluetooth® signal for 3 minutes. If the connection has still not been made after this time, a short acoustic signal is emitted. In any case, even though no further acoustic signal is emitted, the device continues to search for a Bluetooth® connection until it is opened again. The alarm system is activated when the smartphone connected to the equipment moves away from the car in which the closed accessory is present.

Chicco BebèCare easy-tech features three alarm levels:

  • Alarm 0: if the child is left on board and the smartphone moves away only briefly, the system will send a simple distance alert. However, if the smartphone stays away for more than 3 minutes the first level alarm will be triggered.

  • First level alarm: should the smartphone move away from the vehicle in which the equipment was installed and activated,  for more than 3 minutes, the phone will emit an acoustic andvisual alarm that can be muted within 40 seconds. Moving the smartphone towards the equipment does not stop the alarm. The “STOP” button in the BebèCare APP must be pressed in order to deactivate the alarm.

  • Second level alarm: this is activated the moment in which the first level alarm was not silenced within the time window provided for the first level alarm, and sends alarm messages to all the predefined emergency numbers with the information needed for geolocating the area where the baby is located. At the end of the trip, unbuckle the seat belts, remembering to always open the equipment (Fig. 3) to deactivate the system and prevent the alarms from being activated.
    The Chicco BebèCare APP comes with a package of alarm messages” that will decrease with every second level alarm message by a number equal to that of the emergency contacts entered. Alarm messages can be bought through the Chicco BebèCare APP. In case of insufficient residual alarm messages, proceed with the purchase of one of the packages available in the “Purchases” section of the APP. If the number of alarm messages is insufficient, the system is disabled and is not working.  If there is no signal. If there is no internet connection (mobile network of WiFi), Chicco Bebè Care easy-tech will correctly activate alarm 0 and the first level alarm, but it may not be able to send the alarm messages to the emergency numbers (second level alarm).

  • The Chicco Bebè Care APP supports not only the Chicco BebeCare easy-tech anti-abandonment equipment, but also the Chicco Bebè Care range of child car seats with integrated sensors, through the same family account.

  • Chicco Bebè Care easy-tech does not interfere with the normal operation of the Bluetooth® system that may be present in the car.

USING THE CHICCO BEBÈCARE APP ON MULTIPLE DEVICES/SMARTPHONES

After registering the family account and associating the car seat with Chicco BebèCare easy-tech equipment using the smartphone by scanning the QR code, it is possible to use Chicco BebèCare easy-tech also with other smartphones that have the Chicco BebèCare APP installed. It is possible to use the same family account with an unlimited number of smartphones that have previously installed the Chicco BebèCare APP. The settings predefined using the first smartphone (emergency numbers, association of the equipment and the child’s data) will be automatically available also on the other smartphones with the Chicco BebèCare APP and that are using the same family account.

IMPORTANT: in the event that the family password is changed, the new password must be shared with all users who share the same family account.

IMPORTANT: if there are two smartphones in the same car that were previously associated with the equipment and both have the Chicco BebèCare APP active, the equipment will connect with ONLY one of the two based on the reactivity of the Bluetooth® system of the individual smartphones and this condition cannot be changed until the equipment is deactivated by opening the equipment or until the Bluetooth® signal is lost.
If the person with the smartphone that is connected with the Chicco BebèCare easy-tech equipment at that moment moves away from the car:

  • Alarm 0 and subsequently the first level alarm will activate on the smartphone, which can be silenced by interacting with the APP and pressing the “STOP” button.
  • after a few seconds, the second smartphone that is still in the car will automatically connect with the Chicco BebèCare easy-tech equipment.
    WARNING: if two or more smartphones are used that have the Chicco BebèCare APP installed, it is necessary to identify which one is effectively connected to the equipment and therefore must never be abandoned.
