• When the monitor is in use, do not use a crib mobile or other crib accessories that may produce vibrations. Other
sources of vibrations may include fans, washing machines, loud music, etc. These sources of vibration may
interfere with the performance of your Angelcare® monitor and the alarm will not sound if it continues to detect any
movement. Be sure all vibration sources are eliminated before using the monitor.
• There are several reasons you may experience false alarms. The most common reason is the Nursery Unit has
not been turned off after you have removed your baby from the crib. Another reason is the Sensor Pad has not
been placed under the mattress properly. Be sure the Sensor Pad is on a flat, hard surface with the blue side
facing up. The sensitivity level may also need to be adjusted. Refer to the Movement Sensitivity Adjustment section
on page 11.
• Your monitor can be used in any crib that is stationary and designed to safely hold a baby. If your crib has a
spring or slat base you will need to place a piece of Masonite board under the pad. This support must be at least
13 inches long on all four sides and 1/4 inch thick. Only use your Angelcare® monitor in a stationary sleeping
environment such as a crib where the Sensor Pad can rest on a hard, flat surface.
• Please note the difference between the Low Battery Indicator and the Alarm Indicator on the Nursery Unit. The
Low Battery Indicator is a rapid ticking sound and the Low Battery Indicator Light turns orange. The Alarm Indicator
is a loud beeping sound and the red Alarm Indicator Light flashes.
• When unplugging the AC adapter from each unit, be sure the unit is switched to the off position. If it isn't, the unit
will revert to battery mode if batteries are installed.
• You can use rechargeable batteries, however, a rechargeable battery cannot be recharged by plugging in the AC
adapter. Remove batteries from the unit to recharge.
• The range of this monitor is approximately 200 feet. However, the range will vary depending on the surroundings.
Test the range before use.
NOTE : This monitor is not equipped with an out-of-range indicator. No sound will be
received if the Nursery Unit and Parents' Unit are too far apart.
