What’s in the box
Dim mode
With dim mode preset to on, your
parent unit display will dim to
conserve energy after 10 minutes
of inactivity, in which there is
neither key pressed nor alert
received from the baby unit.
Connect and power on/off -
Baby unit
Connect and power on -
Parent unit
CAUTION
The default volume of your parent unit is
level 4, and the maximum volume is level 7.
If you experience high-pitched screeching
noise from your baby monitor while
positioning:
Make sure your baby unit and parent unit
are more than 3 feet (1 meter) apart, OR
Turn down the volume of your parent unit.

Once you power on both your baby unit and parent unit, your parent unit displays image from the baby unit,
and the
LINK
LED light turns on. The
ON/OFF
LED light of the baby unit also turns on.

Sound activation
When the baby unit detects no sound, the parent unit screen
stays off to save power. Once a sound is detected, the parent unit
screen turns on automatically. It will then turn off again after
50 seconds of no sound detection.

Night vision
The baby unit has infrared LEDs that allow you to
see your baby at night or in a dark room. When the
baby unit detects low light levels, the infrared LEDs
turn on automatically. The images from the baby
unit are in black and white, and appears on
screen.
NOTES
It is normal if you see a short white glare on your parent
unit screen as the baby unit is adapting to the dark
environment.
When the infrared LEDs are on, the images are in black
and white. This is normal.
TIP
Depending on the surroundings and other interfering
factors, like lightings, objects, colors and backgrounds,
the display resolution may vary. Adjust the baby unit’s
angle, or place the baby unit at a higher level to prevent
glare and blurry display.
