USER MANUAL DBX69 ALECTO

The Alecto DBX-69 is for the detection of sound by which the guarding of babies, little children and the helpless is a common used feature. Be advised that the DBX-69 is never capable to meet with the presence of an adult or a parent.

Each time before use, check the functionality of the set. Be advised to regularly check the link during use.

The DBX-69 is a transmitter/receiver working with radio-signals in the 40 MHz band.

The transmission might be disturbed by external influences such as other baby-phones, computers, cordless telephones, TV etc. Should your baby-phone be disturbed or should it cause disturbance at other equipment, then changing channels, removing your baby-phone or removing the equipment that causes the disturbance could often be the solution.

For battery supply preferably use alkaline type batteries. When not in use for a long time, remove the batteries. Using a different power adapter from the one supplied might cause serious damage to the DBX-69.

The use of the DBX-69 is restricted to detection of sounds within own premises. Any other person who is present or might be present within the room that is monitored should be notified of the presence of the installed DBX-69.

Be aware that others than your baby-phone can receive your transmitted signal.

The Alecto DBX-69 complies to the essential requirements and provisions as described in the European Directive 1999/5/EC.

Allowed for usage in The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, Spain, Switzerland, Austria and Germany.

The declaration of conformity is available on the website
