User GuideNo Stress with Lighthouse

No Stress, how it works ?

*This distance is indicative and variable if obstacles, depending on the nature of the environment, the power of batteries used.(see rules of good practice with No Stress page 8)

The Lighthouse alerts you if the Beacon holder is opened during surveillance (involuntarily tear-

ing, game, ...)

The Lighhouse can monitor up to 6 Beacons : an adult can not “seriously”

monitor more than 6 children

The Lighthouse alerts you when a Beacon is immersed with at least 10 centimeters

of water in all direction

An alert is triggered when an active Beacon and its Light-house are more than 60 meters

away*

Beacon can be worn as an ankle-band (no swimming), a wristband (feet in the water allowed) or a necklace (playing in the water

allowed to the shoulders)

No Stress monitoring system provides a continuous communication - 3 times per sec-ond - between a Lighthouse, the central monitoring and alerting device, and one or

more activated Beacons.No Stress detects potential alert situations on one or more children. Several Beacons can be used simultaneously, each one connected to the Lighthouse without possible

interference between them.

No Stress, the complementary security solutionNo Stress does not replace buried private swimming pool safety equipments as defined and required by French law. No Stress helps an adult supervise children near water to prevent risk of immersion but can not replace his vigilance, his ability to assess the situation and good reaction in case of danger. Finally, No Stress is unsuitable and can not be used indoors. Indeed, No Stress is ineffective below a minimum amount of water

(bath, wading pool, ...)

Designed and Produced in France

WarningsNo Stress is designed to help you supervise children facing immersion risk in fresh or salt water

swimming pool, river, pond, lake, sea, ...

No Stress does not replace buried private swimming pool safety equipments as defined and required

by French law : shutters, shelter, blankets, barriers or alarms.

No Stress can never replace the watchful care of a responsible adult. Only him has the ability to act

with caution in case of danger.

No Stress is ineffective inside (bath, ...) or in presence of a small amount of water (less than 10 cm

in each direction).

No Stress is a standalone equipment, mobile and easy to use.No Stress Beacon features a battery life of 230 hours*. We recommend you to always have an extra

set of batteries (CR2032 batery for Beacons and 4 AA batteries for the Lighthouse).

The Lighthouse should not be immersed. Beacons are more tolerant but should not stay under more

than one meter depth.

Before your first use of No Stress, we advise you to carefully read the user guide to understand its conditions of use. A quick and simple test procedure should then be observed before each use on a new pool or a new beach. You must follow it carefully (see page 12).

After activation, the alarm on the Lighthouse will sound in several cases :

• within 5 seconds, if a Beacon is immersed with over 10 centimeters of water around it.

• within 2 seconds, if the Beacon holder is opened during surveillance (game, tearing, ...)

• within 5 seconds, if the Beacon and the Lighthouse are more than 60 meters away**

(see rules of good practice with No Stress page 8)

• if the autonomy of a Beacon or the Lighthouse becomes too low for proper surveillance

current batteries used (see rules of good practice with No Stress page 8).

A static Beacon will turn off automatically after 8 hours of surveillance. This will trigger an alert

on the Lighthouse. Remember to disconnect a Beacon at the end of each surveillance (see page 13).

First time of the season and first use in a pool, a beach, a river ...

No Stress ! It’s simple !Test procedureEven all scenarios covered and tested with No Stress, a test procedure is essential at the beginning

of each season and for every new environment : pool, beach, river, pond, ...

Above all, read the rules of good practice with No Stress page 8.

To ensure No Stress is fully functional :

Turn on the Lighthouse (see pages 4-5).

Put under surveillance a Beacon (see pages 6-11) and close its holder.

Walk around the pool (the beach ...) with the Beacon, leaving the Lighthouse where it will be during

surveillance.

If no alarm is triggered, then the lighthouse is well placed and the pool (the beach ...) properly

covered by No Stress.

If the alarm is triggered, then you should move the Phare closer to the pool (the beach ...) and

restrict the secure area. To stop the alarm, press the central button of the Lighthouse .

To ensure each Beacon and Lighthouse are fully functional :

Activate each Beacon and put it under surveillance (see pages 6-11). Close its holder.

Immersion alert:

Immerse a Beacon under 10 cm of water : the Lighthouse triggers an immersion alert under

5 seconds. Remove the Beacon of the water and press the central button of the Lighthouse .

Repeat for each Beacon to be tested.

Opening alert of the Beacon holder :

Open the Beacon holder. The Lighthouse triggers an opening alert under 2 seconds. Press the

central button of the Lighthouse to stop the alert.

Surveillance end of a BeaconNo Stress ! It’s simple !Surveillance end of a Beacon

Open the Beacon holder. Quickly, the Lighthouse

triggers an alert.

To inform the Lighthouse of the surveillance end,

slide the Beacon on the Lighthouse, both No Stress

symbols being in front of each other, doing circles

around this position.

The Lighthouse informs the Beacon of the

surveillance end by emitting 3 beeps and turning off

the blue light dedicated to this Beacon.

Once disconnected, a Beacon will automatically enter into standby mode to save its battery. For a new surveillance, shake the Beacon a few seconds and present it to the Lighthouse.

Disconnection between the Lighthouse and the Beacon must be done with necklace/wristband opened

Disconnection is like the connection

Surveillance end of the LighthouseBefore turning off the Lighthouse, you must stop

monitoring of all active Beacons.

Strongly discouraged but made possible in

abnormal situation : if you decide to turn off the

Lighthouse while one or more Beacons are active,

the Lighthouse will want a stop order confirmation

by pressing a long time on the central button .To turn off the Lighthouse, you must press a long time (10 seconds) on the central button . Before turning off, the Lighthouse emits an audible alert.

If the Lighthouse is not connected to a Beacon for a few minutes, it stops itself. There is no need to turn it off in normal circumstances.

AlertsNo Stress ! It’s simple !Immersion alert

If the Beacon is inaccessible (impossible to get it out of the water ... ...), you can stop the alarm and disconnect the Beacon by pressing the center button of the Lighthouse for at least 5 seconds.Warning: the child wearing this Beacon will no longer be monitored.

When a Beacon under surveillance is immersed with

at least 10 centimeters depth in each direction, an

immersion alarm is triggered on the Lighthouse. It results

in an audible alarm, a flashing display signal and

the appearance of the blue light of the relevant Beacon.

To stop an immersion alert :•Identify the Beacon which trigger the alert and

ensure that all children carrying a Beacon are safe.

•If necessary, take the concerned Beacon out of the

water and press the central button of the Lighthouse

to stop the alert.

AlertsNo Stress ! It’s simple !Out of range alert

If the Beacon is inaccessible (impossible to get it out of the water ... ...), you can stop the alarm and disconnect the Beacon by pressing the center button of the Lighthouse for at least 5 seconds.Warning: the chils wearing this Beacon will no longer be monitored.

When a Beacon under supervision is more than 60 meters

away from the Lighthouse* (see rules of good practice

with No Stress page 8), the Lighthouse triggers an out

of range alert. It results in an audible alarm, a flashing

display signal and the appearance of the blue light

of the relevant Beacon.

Immersion and out of range result in the same alert on

the Lighthouse : in the event of being out of range, the

Lighthouse loses its connection with the Beacon and can

not provide monitoring, causing an alert.

To stop an out of range alert :•Identify the Beacon which trigger the alert and

ensure that all children carrying a Beacon are safe.

•If necessary, take the concerned Beacon closer to

the Lighthouse and press the central button of the

Lighthouse to stop the alert.

AlertsNo Stress ! It’s simple !Holder opening alertThe holder opening alert helps you prevent inadvertent

or accidental opening of the Beacon holder to ensure that

your child is always wearing No Stress.

If the Beacon holder is open during surveillance, an alert

is triggered on the Lighthouse. It results in an audible

alarm, a flashing display signal and the appearance

of the blue light of the relevant Beacon.

To stop a holder opening alert :Close the holder on the child and press the central

button of the Lighthouse to stop the alert.

If the bracket is damaged (broken, deformed ...), you can stop the alarm and disconnect the Beacon by pressing the central button of the Lighthouse for at least 5 seconds.Warning: the child wearing this Beacon will no longer be monitored.

Battery autonomy alertNo Stress ! It’s simple !Lighthouse battery autonomy alertThe Lighthouse, such as Beacons, has a lifetime up to

230 active hours, the equivalent of a regular summer

monitoring, depending on the number of Beacons

monitored, the frequency of alerts, and the quality of

batteries used. We advise you to always have an extra set

of AA batteries available.

In case of low battery life of the Lighthouse, the signal is activated.

To stop a Lighthouse battery autonomy alert :Press the Lighthouse central button .

A new alert comes under 5 minutes if you do not change the Lighthouse batteries.

We recommend you to quickly change the batteries to avoid a complete shutdown of the Lighthouse

and therefore interrupt surveillance.

Warning: stopping the Lighthouse, such as removing the battery, immediately interrupt any surveillance of Beacons. After replacing the batteries and activating the lighthouse, it is necessary to reconnect all Beacons.

© AS Pool 17v. 1.2.0

In case of Beacon low battery life, its light flashes, the

Lighthouse signal is activated and the yellow light

of the concerned beacon is on.

To stop a Beacon battery autonomy alert :Press the Lighthouse central button .

A new alarm occurs within 5 minutes if the Beacon

battery is not replaced.

Quickly change the batteries to avoid a complete

shutdown of the Beacon and therefore interrupt

surveillance.

Battery autonomy alertNo Stress ! It’s simple !Beacon battery autonomy alert

At the end of its lifetime, a Beacon is brutally disconnected from the Lighthouse. This triggers an

immersion alert . To stop this alert and disconnect the Beacon, you will have to press the

central button of the Lighthouse at least 5 seconds and wait until releasing confirmation: 3

beeps. After changing its battery, reactivate the Beacon by shaking it and connect it again to the

Lighthouse for surveillance.

Warning : we advise you to disconnect a Beacon before changing its battery.
