Please read this operating manual thoroughly. Under no circumstances open the devices yourself and never carry out any repair work yourself. In the case of claims under the terms of guarantee, please contact your sales outlet. SWITEL reserves the right to make modifications to the technical specifications and design within the scope of product improvement.

1. Intended use

This babyphone has been developed purely for monitoring voice signals, e.g. from children. Under ideal conditions, monitoring is possible within a range of 2 km.

2. Installation location

Set the babyphone units down on a flat, non-slip surface. Normally, these units do not leave marks on the surfaces where they are located. However, due to the number of paints and surfaces which come into question, it cannot be fully ruled out that the housing will leave marks on the surface where it is located.

3. Power supply

Only use the SWITEL power adapter plugs contained in the material supplied since other power adapter plugs could damage the baby-phone. Never open the power adapter plugs. If a power adapter plug is opened when connected to the power supply socket, there is a risk of fatal injury.

If you want to use the receiver unit with non-rechargeable batteries, never connect the power adapter plug. This would bring the risk of

explosion!

4. Disposing of the device

You are obliged to dispose of the device properly in accordance with European and international laws and directives. This serves to protect both human beings and the environment. The adjacent symbols indicate that electronic devices no longer required must be disposed of separate from domestic waste.

Symbol combining a recycling can and a recycling symbol, indicating restricted use or no disposal.

Equipment which is old or has exceeded its service life must be disposed of at a corresponding collection point provided by the local public waste authorities.

Batteries and power adapter plugs must be disposed of at the point of sale or at a corresponding collection point provided by the local public waste authorities.

Packing materials must be disposed of according to the applicable local regulations.

5. Important

• Check the sound reception before putting the remote babyphone units into operation. This also checks whether the units have been placed within range of each other. The sound transmission should be checked at regular intervals: Let an adult speak quietly into the transmitter unit. It should be possible to hear the sound made in the baby's room clearly on the “receiver unit” (unit for the adults) in another room.
• During operation, do not place the transmitter and receiver units too close to each other. The units could resonate or interference noise could be produced.
• If you use a power adapter plug, do not position it in the vicinity of the baby but on a window sill or another location where the baby cannot reach it.
• Battery power, walls, radio waves and local characteristics can affect the range of the devices. To achieve a better performance, switch to a different channel or position the receiver unit nearer to the transmitter unit.

6. Cleaning and upkeep

• The units may only be cleaned with a soft cloth which has been slightly moistened (with water).
• Never use cleaning agents which contain solvents.
• Only clean the battery contacts with a dry cloth.
• If the units become damp, remove the batteries and wait until the units are completely dry.

☐ Connect the power adapter plug to the DC 7.5V socket (18) in the receiver unit and to the power outlet.

3. Inserting the batteries in the transmitter unit

☐ The transmitter unit can be operated using 4 normal “AAA” batteries or rechargeable batteries of the same type. Please remember that the batteries cannot be recharged using the power adapter plug supplied. A commercially available charging unit is required.

☐ Unlock the battery compartment (H) and remove the cover.
☐ Ensure the correct polarity of the batteries.
☐ Close the battery compartment.

4. Connecting the power adapter plug to the transmitter unit

☐ Connect the power adapter plug to the DC 10V socket (6) in the transmitter unit and to the power outlet.

5. Wall installation of the transmitter unit

The transmitter unit can be mounted on a wall. You only need a screw which fits in the slot on the rear of the transmitter unit.

5 Operation

1. Transmitter unit

In order that the transmitter (unit for the baby) and receiver (unit for the adult) can communicate with each other, they must both be set to the same memory channel (M1-M15).

Sensitivity control (VOX)

The sensitivity control is used to set the noise level at which the transmitter should begin transmitting noises detected.

1 kHz beep signal

In order to be sure the transmitter is working properly, activate this feature so that it sends a beep signal every 30 seconds.

Automatic monitoring

The transmitter can be set up so that it activates the microphone for 5 seconds every 5 minutes and transmits the noises detected to the receiver.

Alert signal

The transmitter can be set up so that it sends an alert signal before transmitting the noises detected.

display flashes while completing the settings de- scribed below; it returns to a constant display after a few seconds. This means that the setting made has been saved.
