FAQ Sam and Davy
In short how do I operate Sam or Davy?
Please check out our Quickstart video or read the manual. You can also check our how to video’s. It clearly describes the 1st steps to get Sam/Davy up and running. Once the settings are done, Sam/Davy will close their eyes every day and open them in the morning at preset time.
Product does not work on batteries.
Please make sure you are using new alkaline batteries from a known brand. Change to a new set, to be sure the batteries are full. Some batteries might not have enough power to operate the eyes, like Zinc-carbon batteries.
Product is resetting by itself.
Most probably the batteries are causing the problem. Please make sure batteries are not nearly empty and do not use Zinc-Carbon batteries, they are for low consumption products only. Use new good brand alkaline batteries only. Using other batteries might cause the product to not work properly.
Product does not work with USB cable.
Check if the adaptor you are using is working well. Change to another standard USB cable to check if that is the problem. If this is not the problem, try again while taking out the batteries completely.
If the power is turned off , does the sleeptrainer remember it’s settings?
When the power shuts off, the sleeptrainer will not remember it’s settings unless batteries are inserted. We therefore advise to insert the batteries as back up in case power shuts off.
How can I stop my child from playing with buttons and changing the settings?
The clock will enter key lock mode automatically after 1 minute. To manually activate the key lock: press the key lock button for 3 seconds. After activating the sleeptimer/wake-up time the key-lock is activated straight away, so that the settings cannot be changed anymore.
Can I separate the wake-up time from the alarm time?
Yes, when setting the naptime or wake-up time, you can separately set the alarm. So you can set the sound alarm at a later time than the opening of the eyes.
Please check our how to video’s for more information:
How to – Set the OK to wake time
How to – Set the alarm time
Can I switch off the orange screen, half an hour before wake-up?
It is not possible to switch off or change the time it turns on. The time is fixed at 30 minutes. If your child is still sleeping, the orange light will not wake him/her up. But if he/she does wake up, she knows straight away that it is not much longer by seeing the screen is orange.
How can I close Sam’s or Davy’s eyes?
In the menu you select a time that Sam/Davy will automatically close their eyes every day. If you want to close them earlier you can press the DOWN button for 3 seconds and the eyes will close.
Check our video on how to open/close the eyes manually here.
How can I see if the clock is key-locked?
In the top of the LCD screen the key-lock symbol will appear when it is activated.
How do I know if my clock is activated?
Sam or Davy is always activated. Once you have set the bedtime and OK to wake up time, he will automatically go to sleep every night and wake up every morning at the preset time.
What if Sam is just not listening at all?
Try resetting Sam by pushing the tiny button with a paperclip on the bottom of the clock. This will usually make him listen.
Check our video on how to reset Sam/Davy here.
Sometimes the buttons do not react when I press them. What is wrong?
Probably the key lock has been activated. To unlock press the keylock-button, right, for 3 sec.
Key-lock is activated automatically after the buttons have not been touched for 1 minute. This to prevent the settings to accidentally be changed.
If I do not want the alarm to sound, do I need to change the volume in the settings menu?
No, that is not necessary. In the menu (alarm clock icon) you can switch the alarm ON/OFF.
Is there a demo function to show my child the working of Sam?
Yes there is a demo function in the settings menu. This demo will go through the entire bedtime ritual in around 20 seconds with preset time, so not the actual time that you have entered. You can check out our how to video for the demo function here.
How long can I use the sleeptrainer when using batteries?
When using batteries, make sure you are using good alkaline batteries. Also we advise you to limit the nightlight to 5 minutes and select lowest brightness in the settings menu. Only then batteries will last around 4 weeks with normal use. With other settings the battery life will be decreased significantly.
I can’t find the off function in the naptimer menu, what can I do?
You have to set the naptimer each time you want to use it, so there is not an off function in the menu because it ends automatically.
Check our video on how to set the naptime here.
Is it possible to set two wake up times so we can use a different wake up time for the weekends?
No, this is not possible.
What kind of adapter do I need for Sam/Davy?
We advise you to use a 5V,1A adapter.

Why do I need to reconnect to the wireless speaker?
If Pam needs to ‘look’ for connection 24/7 it takes up too much battery.

How do I change the brightness of the nightlight?
Switch on the nightlight by pressing the big button, then keep the big button pressed. The brightness will change. Let go at the right brightness. Pam will remember this setting for next use.

Press the triangle button on the bottom for 3 seconds. In the display will appear a crossed out alarm clock. This means that the sleeptraining function is switched off.
What kind of adaptor do I need to use for charging?
You can use any 5Volt output adapter for charging. Most telephone adapters comply with this.

If you place Pam on the charging dock, the light should flash blue when charging. If this does not happen, please check the adaptor and USB cable, by using another one if available. If both work fine and Pam still does not charge, please contact us.
FAQ Robby the rocker
MY ROCKER DOES NOT CHARGE
Please make sure you are using a normal adaptor and not a fast charger. The product is not compatible for fast charging. This means that the specs on your 5V adaptor should not exceed 2.0 ampere or 10W
HOW CAN I IMPROVE THE ROCKING OF MY STROLLER
– Ensure that the rocker is fully charged and positioned horizontally on the main handlebar.
– Extend the horizontal bar as much as possible. The greater the distance from the wheelbase, the more effective the rocking will be.
– Experiment with different frequencies to determine if it enhances the rocking experience.
– If your stroller is carrying additional weight like groceries, bags, consider removing some of it to improve the rocking motion.
HOW DOES THE CRY SENSOR WORK?
The cry sensor operates by listening to sounds, such as crying. When it detects a certain level of sound, typically crying, it will activate the rocking. Upon detecting crying, it will rock the stroller for a duration of 10 minutes. The cry sensor will remain active for a continuous period of 3 hours to provide soothing support when needed.
WHAT IS THE OPTIMUM ROCKING SETTING FOR MY STROLLER
Each stroller or pram has its own ideal rocking setting, which depends on the specific type of stroller and the total weight that needs to be gently rocked. Therefore, please explore and adjust among the five available frequencies to discover the one that works best for your particular stroller and baby’s comfort. Another way to enhance the rocking experience is by extending the handlebar to its maximum length.
IF THE LED LIGHT IS FLASHING, HOW MUCH TIME REMAINS UNTIL THE PRODUCT IS DEPLETED?
When the flashing begins, you can expect approximately 2 more hours of usage, contingent upon the chosen frequency.
CAN YOU I USE THE ROCKER IN THE RAIN?
The product has been tested with an IPX1 rating, indicating its resistance to light rain. However, we strongly recommend that when it starts raining, you remove the rocker and store it in a dry place. Please refrain from exposing it to prolonged or heavy rainfall.
CAN I ATTACH THE ROCKER ANYWHERE?
The product should always be positioned horizontally and should not be attached to the side bar. The ideal placement is on the main handlebar of the stroller. The farther away it is from the wheel base, the more effective the rocking motion will be.
For safety, please ensure that the rocker is kept out of your child’s reach, and do not position it directly above your child to prevent any potential hazards.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO KEEP ROBBY RUNNING CONTINUOUSLY?
You cannot have Robby on continuously, as the rocker is programmed to automatically switch off after 40 minutes. However, you have the option to activate the cry sensor. When your child remains restless and cries, the cry sensor will automatically switch on the rocker again for an additional 10 minutes to provide soothing comfort.
Note This product is designed to assist your child in achieving a restful sleep and should not be used as a substitute for a caregiver, nor should it be used continuously for an extended period.
IN WHAT TEMPERATURE RANGE IS ROBBY SUITABLE FOR USE?
Robby is suitable for use in temperatures ranging from 30°C to -10°C. However, please be aware that colder temperatures will result in reduced battery life.
Note Very high or low temperatures may not be suitable for your child’s well-being, so please refer to the safety guidelines accordingly.
