Transmission range Environmental information Maintenance

Philips is dedicated to produce caring, reliable products to give parents the reassurance they need.Your baby cam consists of a monitor unit (parent unit) and a camera unit (baby unit).With the units properly connected the baby cam provides round-theclock support by ensuring you can always see and hear your baby clearly.When the baby cam is used as a regular baby monitor, it enables you to hear your baby anywhere in the house at all times. Philips Baby Care, taking care together Safety information Please read this user manual carefully before using your baby cam and keep it for future reference.This baby cam is intended as an aid. It is not a substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision and should not be used as such. • Read and observe all warnings on the product and in this user manual. • Make sure the camera unit and adapter cable are always out of reach of the baby (at least 1 meter/3 feet away). • Never cover the baby cam (with a towel, blanket, etc.). • Never use the baby cam in moist places or close to water. • Do not expose the baby cam to extreme cold, heat or light (e.g. direct sunlight). • Check to ensure that the voltage indicated on the type plate of the adapters (A-12, B-10) corresponds to the local power voltage before connecting to the AC power supply. • To prevent electric shock, do not open the inside of the camera unit and monitor unit (except for the battery compartments) • The monitor unit antenna (B-9) is fixed; do not try to extend or bend it. • The camera unit antenna (A-3) can only be bent down (and up again). It cannot be extended. • Always unplug the AC adapters when not using the baby cam for long periods of time. • The adapters and battery compartment covers may be slightly warm during operation.This is normal. • Position the AC adapter cords so that they are not walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at AC adapter plugs, wall plugs, and the point at which the cords attach to the system.

• Use only the AC adapters provided. Use of any other adapters may damage the system. Plug the AC adapters into standard household current only! To prevent entanglement and overheating, do not use extension cords. • Keep in mind that you are using public airwaves when you use the baby cam. Sound and video may be broadcast to other receiving devices. Conversations, even from rooms near the camera unit, may be broadcast as well. • To protect your privacy, always switch off the camera unit when not in use. • Danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or an equivalent type. • Do not mix battery types (alkaline batteries with other batteries). • Remove batteries when the baby cam will not be used for a long period of time. • Do not mix old and new batteries. • Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries.This may cause a fire. • If the batteries are left in the units when they are powered from the mains, check them for leakage every six months.

EN T T Getting your baby cam ready

Camera unit (baby unit) Tips for positioning the camera unit • Never place the camera unit inside the baby’s bed or playpen. • Position the unit at least 1 meter (3 feet) away from your baby. • The unit can be mounted on a wall, or placed on a stable, flat surface, such as a dresser or table top. IMPORTANT! Once you have selected a location for mounting the unit, test reception before mounting the unit to the wall. If interference or other problems occur, refer to chapter ‘Troubleshooting’. • To prevent entanglement, mount the unit only at locations where its AC adapter cord is out of children’s reach! • To prevent entanglement and overheating, mount the unit only in locations where the AC adapter cord can reach a standard wall outlet. • Mount the unit at a location where the camera lens is not obstructed. Use the horizontal and vertical angle adjustment options to aim the camera properly.

EN Getting your baby cam ready

• Allow adequate ventilation of the unit when mounted on the wall. Do not mount it directly above heating vents, other heat-generating sources or in direct sunlight.

Technical specifications

EN Important information

• Picture and sound quality is influenced by the use of microwave ovens. Other wireless systems (Bluetooth, wireless LANs, etc.) can also adversely influence the quality of picture and sound, and vice versa. • The baby cam is a Radio Frequency (RF) based product. As such its performance can suffer the same kinds of interference as GSMs, portable radios and other RF-based products. • The baby cam is not limited to just one room.You can use it anywhere in the house. Consequently, anybody in the vicinity of your house (up to the maximum operating range) who also owns a baby cam set to the same channel can watch and hear your baby. • Radio wave safety: when switched on, the baby cam transmits and receives radio waves. The baby cam complies with the standards that are defined for it. • The baby cam has an operating range of up to 100 meters, approximately in open air. Walls, ceilings and other large objects may limit the useable operating range to about 30 meters in the house, depending on what material the walls are made off.

What is the transmission range of a baby monitor in connection with the environment? The range specified is the open field range of a specific monitor. This range may be reduced, depending on the surroundings and other interference factors.
