2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Intended Use
Sock Shoe
The Sense-U Smart Sock Shoe consists of a wearable Sock Shoe sensor and the Sense-U Baby App. It is intended to improve sleep quality for both the baby and the entire family by monitoring the baby’s real-time sleep data and providing sleep quality indicators.
* The communication range is up to 50 feet (15 meters) in open spaces. Obstacles such as brick walls may significantly reduce the effective range.
Sense-U Baby App
The Sense-U Baby App is a mobile application that connects to receive readings from the Sock Shoe worn on your child’s foot. It displays real-time readings and provides sleep insights to parents, helping them stay informed and feel reassured.
Base Station (For Long Range Version)
The Base Station is designed to maintain the Sock Shoe's connectivity at all times and send notifications when the readings exceed preset ranges. It provides notifications through lights and sounds directly from the Base Station, as well as mobile notifications via the smartphone app, aiming to promote restful sleep for both the child and parents.

Before First Use
• The sensor must be aligned with the big toe

• Loose fitting may cause false alerts
2.4 Wear the Sock Shoe
The Sock Shoe should fit snugly - not too tight or too loose. Take off the sock immediately in case of redness, swelling, or skin irritation.
Step 1: Select the correct sock size based on your baby’s weight. Align the triangular notch with the back of the pinky toe, and ensure the sock notch does not extend beyond the toes.
Step 2: After aligning the notch, secure the hook-and-loop strap to fasten the forefoot. Ensure the notch reference position stays in place during tightening.
Step 3: Wrap the other strap around the ankle and secure it with velcro.
Step 4: Tighten the straps on the soles with velcro for a snug fit.
Skin Irritation
• Use the correct Sock size.
• Keep skin clean and dry. Do not use lotions or powders under the Sock.
• Make sure the Sock fits properly and is not too tight.
• Check your baby’s skin every 4 hours during the first week and after a sock size change.
• Check the skin twice a week.
• Marks that fade within 8 hours are normal.
• Hand wash the Sock and Sensor regularly and dry completely before use.
• If redness or irritation occurs, remove the sock immediately and allow the skin to rest before reuse.
3 HOW TO USE
3.1 Download the App
1. Download the free Sense-U Baby App, available for iOS and Android from Apple App Store and Google Play.
2. Allow all requested permissions for the Sense-U App, e.g Location, Bluetooth, Critical Alert, No Optimization of Battery Usage, etc.
3. Create a free Sense-U account.
* Bluetooth on your smart device must be turned on to connect. For Android devices, please ensure Location is enabled for the Sense-U Baby App at all times by going to Settings->Connections->Location and Settings ->Apps->Sense-U Baby-> Permissions. Otherwise, the app cannot pair with the sensor or stay connected.
* To pair to another smart device, you need to log out the Sense-U App on the paired smart device first.
* The communication distance is up to 50 feet (15 meters) in open space. Firewalls or other obstacles in between may significantly affect the distance.

3.3 Choosing the Right Sock Shoe
Choose a Sock that fits well — not too tight or too loose, with room for the skin to breathe. This ensures comfort and accurate readings. Start with the size suggested by weight, and switch as needed for the best fit.
* Check the Sock fit regularly. Baby’s foot size may vary, and babies grow quickly. Stop using the product when your baby reaches 30 lbs (13.6 kg) or outgrows the largest available size. Align the notch on the Sensor with the notch on the Sock Shoe. Stretch the Sock Shoe opening over the Sensor until it fits securely.
4 POWER AND CHARGING
The Sense-U Smart Sock Shoe uses magnetic wireless charging:
1. Plug it in, align both charging contact pins and ensure they are facing the correct position. The indicator will flash GREEN.

* Only use a DC 5V 1A adapter.
* Fast-charging adapters are not supported.
* When not in use, turn off the Sock Shoe sensor by long-pressing the power button to save power.
