Safety Instructions
PROPER POSITIONING
IMPORTANT:
When choosing locations to set up the Baby Unit and
Parent Unit, follow these guidelines:
• For best sound quality, place Baby Unit 3 feet (0.9 m) away from
the baby.
• Adjust volume dial on Parent Unit to appropriate level to minimize feedback.
• During use of the monitor, sound quality deteriorates as you reach the limits
of the monitor's range. If this happens, you will need to move the Parent Unit
in closer proximity to the Baby Unit.
IMPORTANT – CHECK RECEPTION
:
The first time you use your monitoring system, two adults should test it in the
following way:
• Place Parent Unit at least 20' (6m) away from Baby Unit.
• Have an adult speak into Baby Unit at various levels (soft to loud) while
another adult checks Parent Unit for the proper sound and picture reception.
Try Parent Unit in every location that it will be used.
Wall Mounting the Camera:
Mounting the Baby Unit on a wall is similar to mounting a picture.
1. Make 2 marks horizontally in your desired location on the wall. Make certain
location is close to power source and any wiring is not accessible by children.
2. Install 2 screws (5/16" head) in the wall where you made the marks.
3. Carefully place base of Baby Unit on screw and gently slide to the
left until Baby Unit is securely in place. Confirm attachment
to wall before letting go of Baby Unit.
4. Plug in AC adapter. Ensure all wiring is properly
positioned to avoid all contact and/or accessibility
by children. Recommend battery power use if cable
poses possible hazard.
Care and Cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth to keep your monitor free from dust.
DO NOT immerse product in water.
Cleaning Camera Lens:
1. With a soft brush, such as a clean makeup brush, carefully brush away
any dust and dirt particles that may be on your Camera lens. Do not skip
this step as a small bit of sand or dirt left behind could scratch your lens
in the next steps.
2. Take a cotton swab and lightly moisten it with clean water.
Carefully swab around the inside edges of your lens.
3. With a dry portion of a lens cloth or soft non-abrasive tissue,
buff the lens in a circular motion to dry.
Helpful Hints
Use household electricity whenever possible. When the AC Adapter is used with
your household electricity, you will find that the power is stronger and more
consistent than when you rely solely on the battery. Range and sound quality also
depends on the construction of your house. Steel reinforced wall, for example, reduces
the effective range of the monitor. Conserve the battery so you will have power when
you don’t have easy access to AC outlets.
When not using the Unit, remove AC Adapter and be sure the power button is “OFF”.
When you are not using the AC Adapter, remove it from the Unit and store it in a safe,
dry place until you need it again. If the AC Adapter is plugged into the Parent Unit but
not being used in an electrical outlet, the AC Adapter will prevent battery operation
of the Unit.
When using the AC Adapter with household electricity, make sure the outlet is “ON”.
Some electrical outlets are powered through a switch in the room. If the Baby Unit is
plugged in and turned “ON”, the power indicator light should be lit. If it is not, try
turning the light switch in the room “ON”.
Safety Instructions
VENTILATION:
The Monitor should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation
openings, or placed in an enclosed installation, such as a book case or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the
ventilation openings.
• Position the Transmitter, Receiver and AC adapters to allow adequate ventilation and prevent
these components from overheating.
HEAT:
The Monitor should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other appliances that produce heat. Also keep these components out of direct sunlight.
POWER SOURCE:
The Monitor should be connected to a power supply only of the type described
in these operating instructions.
POWER CORD PROTECTION:
The power supply cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be walked on
or pinched by items placed upon or against it. Pay particular attention to the cord at the plug, convenience receptacle, and at
the point it exits from the Monitor.
NOTE: Do not place adapter under a window where
a child might use it to step on and reach something that might be dangerous.
• Check to make sure outlet plates are not unusually hot to the touch. If they are, immediately unplug cords from
these outlets. Check that all outlet connections are in good condition so that adapter is not loose or that no
wiring is exposed. Have a qualified, licensed electrician check the wiring as soon as possible.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY:
Care should be taken so that objects do not fall onto, and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure
through the openings.
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE:
The Monitor should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the product; or
C. The Monitor has been exposed to rain; or
D. The Monitor does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in its performance; or
E. The Monitor has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
THE USER SHOULD NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE OR REPAIR THE MONITOR. ALL SERVICING SHOULD BE
REFERRED TO SAFETY 1
