Setting Up the Baby Monitor
***NOTE: It is very important that the steps below be followed for first time power-up.
1. For optimum operation, it is best to charge the batteries in the Parent Units for at least 16 hours prior
to use. The rechargeable batteries need to be installed into the Parent Unit before charging - refer to the
“Battery Installation” section.
2. Place the Nursery Unit within 10 feet (3 meters) of your baby. Plug an AC adapter into the jack on the
back of the Nursery Unit. Plug it into a working 120 volt AC outlet.
3. Aim the Nursery Unit toward your baby. Check that there are no walls or large objects that could block
sound transmission.
4. Place the Parent Unit within five (5) feet (1.5 meters) of the Nursery Unit and turn on the Parent Unit
using the On/Off button on right side of the LCD screen.
5. Turn on the Nursery Unit using the On/Off button on the front of the unit.
6. Within a few seconds, the Parent Unit will lock on to the Nursery Unit.
A second later, you will hear a series of beeps and the connection symbol should
