CONGRATULATIONS

You have just purchased a high-performance, cordless Baby Monitor that lets you listen to your child from wherever you are in and around the house. Please read this guide carefully before using the monitor, and keep it for future reference.

IMPORTANT!

This Baby Monitor is intended as an aid. It is not a substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision and should not be used as such.

Make sure the Baby unit and adapter cable are always out of reach of the baby, at least 1 metre away.

Never place the Baby unit inside the baby's bed or playpen!

The antennas on the Parent and Baby units are fixed; do not try to extend them.

Never cover the Baby unit (with a towel, blanket, etc.)

GETTING THE UNITS READY FOR USE

Baby unit

Connect the AC power adapter (A-9) to an AC mains socket, and then connect the cord to the DC power supply socket (A-6) of the Baby unit.

If you want to use batteries, remove the battery compartment cover (A-8) using a screwdriver. Insert four 1.5V, AA batteries (not included; we recommend non-chargeable Philips Alkaline batteries), noting the + and - configuration inside the battery compartment. Put the cover back in place and tighten screw.

The Baby unit operates cordlessly for up to 30 hours on fresh batteries. The red POWER light (A-2) flashes when battery power is low. If this happens install new batteries.

Note: To switch off the Baby unit completely push the POWER button (A-4).

Parent unit

Connect the AC power adapter (B-9) to an AC mains socket, and then connect the cord to the DC power supply socket (B-8) of the power base (B-4). Place the Parent unit inside the power base. The red light (B-11) lights.

If you want to use batteries, remove the battery compartment cover (B–5). Insert four 1.5V, AA batteries (not included; we recommend non-chargeable Philips Alkaline batteries), noting the + and - configuration inside the battery compartment. Put the cover back in place.

The Parent unit operates cordlessly for up to 30 hours on fresh batteries. The red POWER light (B-1) flashes when battery power is low. If this happens install new batteries.

Monitoring baby's sounds

To use the units to listen to your baby:

• Position the Baby unit at least 1 metre away from the baby so that the microphone (A-1) can pick up baby's sounds.
• Set the channel switch to the same position on both units.
• Push the POWER switch on the baby unit (A-4) to switch it on.
• Set the SENSITIVITY control (A-5) on the Baby unit to about mid-range (5).
• The green TRANSMIT light (A-3) lights when a sound is picked up.
• Move away from the Baby unit with the Parent unit.
• Switch on the Parent unit using the Volume control/Off (B-3) and adjust the volume to the level you prefer.
• If required, re-adjust the SENSITIVITY control (A-5) on the Baby unit to set the level at which the microphone will start to pick up sounds.

When the SENSITIVITY control (A-5) is set to 9, the microphone picks up even the softest sounds. Experiment with different levels until you find the setting that suits you and your baby best.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

Avoiding interference

Both units use anti-interference technology to reduce the chance of interference from other signals. If interference does occur or if sound reception is poor, try switching both units to the other channel to improve the sound quality.

Note: Always make sure that the channel selection switches (A-7, B-6) on both units are set to the same position.

Switching on the audible warning

If you wish, you can switch on a special feature that lets you hear an audible warning on the Parent unit when the units are not in touch. The Parent unit is delivered with this beep switched off to avoid intermittent disturbances that can occur when the connection is interrupted for a short period.

To switch on the audible warning, open the Parent unit's battery compartment cover (B-5) and set the switch (B-10) inside to the On position ( ♂ ).

When the units are no longer in touch, try one of the following:

• Move the Parent unit closer to the Baby unit. (The maximum operating distance is 250m in ideal conditions. Walls and floors can limit this distance.)
• Switch both units to the other channel.
• Check that both units are powered correctly (low batteries?).

Belt clip

When the batteries of the Parent unit are charged, the unit can be carried around giving you freedom of movement while still monitoring your baby. Use the belt clip (B-7) to attach the unit to your clothing and so keep your hands free. The belt clip can be removed by unclipping the top and sliding it downwards.
