Attention: infrared beams cannot be perceived by the human eye; it is not possible to detect that the LEDs have been switched on with the naked eye. However, depending on the type infrared LED there may be a red glow which is visible.

- Read the user manual carefully and follow all the instructions.
- Do no place or use either the baby unit or the parent unit in a wet or damp area or environment.
- Ensure good ventilation for the heat; never cover the parent unit, the baby unit (s) and /or the power adapter(s) and never place it directly next to a heat source.
- Only use the included power adapter(s), using another type of adapter may damage the electro- nics.
- Make sure the power cables are not damaged, and ensure the wires will not lead to stumbling or falling over.
- Only connect or disconnect the power adapter of the baby unit or the parent unit when the power adapter is not connected to an electrical outlet.
- Do not install the DVM-50 during a thunderstorm.

6.3 RECEIVE INDICATOR/OUT OF RANGE REPORT:
- The signal strength coming from the baby unit is shown on the top left side of the display on the parent unit: : very good reception : good reception : poor reception
- In every situation, the picture and sound will remain the same quality on the display.
- When the parent unit does not receive any signal from the baby unit (the baby unit is out of range or turned off), the ‘Out of Range’ connection indicator ‘ ’ will show on the display. An alarm tone will also sound every 5 seconds. .
- When the out of range problem is solved, the connection indicator will light up continuously again and stop beeping.
6.4 DELAY IN THE PICTURE AND SOUND:
- The baby unit sends an image and sound signal to the parent unit using digital blocks. The parent unit then turns the signal into a recognizable image and an audible sound. A slight delay is possible given the time it takes for the parent unit to correspond the signals into an image and sounds and play it back. The sound and the image on the parent unit will therefore not be exactly in sync with the baby unit.
- Baby unit: The baby unit is powered only from the supplied 6V power adapter. The baby unit does not have a built-in battery for portable use.
- Parent unit: The parent unit is powered by rechargeable 3.7V Li-ion Polymer batteries; these can supply the parent unit with power for between 8 to 10 hours. The battery status is displayed on the top right of display: : Battery is full : Battery is 2/3 full : Battery is 1/3 full, charging is required : Battery is empty and the parent unit will turn off : Battery is charging : Battery full/no battery inside33 About 15-20 minutes before the battery is empty, the ‘ ’buttonwillashonthedisplay.Abeeptone will also sound every 60 seconds. Immediately plug in the adapter. The adapter takes about 5 hours to charge up an empty battery.
6.6 INTERFERENCE FREE:
- This baby monitor is digitally encoded. You will never receive a signal from other equipment and the signal from your baby unit (s) will not be shown on other parent units, for example, your neigh- bours.

6.8 LISTEN IN/TAP IN:
