When the LED turns to red, it indicates that the battery is dying. You need to plug in the Audio Parent Unit within 5 to 10 minutes after red battery LED appears or battery power will fail.WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BATTERY LIFEA Fully charged battery being used with both video and audio typically lasts approximately 6 hours. During the last 5 minutes, the large flashing red battery will start flashing. You need to plug in the Parent Unit within 5 to 10 minutes after red battery starts to flash or battery power will fail.Rechargeable batteries are prone to what is referred to as the "memory effect". What this means is that if a battery is repeatedly only partially discharged before recharging, the battery "forgets" that it has the capacity to further discharge all the way down. To illustrate: If on a regular basis you fully charge your battery and then use only 50% of its capacity before the next recharge, eventually the batterywill become unaware of its extra 50% capacity which has remained unused. The battery will remain functional, but only at 50% of its original capacity.The way to avoid the "memory effect" is to fully cycle (fully charge and then fully discharge) the battery at least once every two to three months. Simply leaving the device in the ON position and letting it run can discharge batteries completely. This will help insure your battery remains healthy. Once discharged, recharge the battery completely according to the manufacturer's instructions.Baby Unit (Transmitter):PROPER POSITIONINGIMPORTANT: When choosing locations to set up the Baby Unit and Parent Unit, follow these guidelines:• For best sound quality, place Baby Unit 3 feet (0.9 m) away from the baby.• Adjust volume dial on Parent Unit to appropriate level to minimize feedback.• During use of the monitor, sound quality deteriorates as you reach the limits of the monitor's range. If this happens, you will need to move the Parent Unit in closer proximity to the Baby Unit.

Radio and Television InterferenceNote: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules and applicable Industry Canada specifications. These Limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. For body worn operation, this product has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the belt clip supplied or designed with this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines.This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does not cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning this equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressively approved by Dorel Juvenile Group can void your authority to operate this equipment under the Federal Communications Commission rules..FCC StatementUse and CareSafety InstructionsIMPORTANT – CHECK RECEPTION: The first time you use your monitoring system, two adults should test it in the following way: • Place Parent Unit at least 20' (6m) away from Baby Unit. • Have an adult speak into Baby Unit at various levels (soft to loud) while another adult checks Parent Unit for the proper sound and picture reception. Try Parent Unit in every location that it will be used.Wall Mounting the CameraMounting the Baby Unit on a wall is similar to mounting a picture. 1. Make 2 marks horizontally in your desired location on the wall. Make certain location is close to power source and any wiring is not accessible by children.2. Install 2 screws (5/16" head) in the wall where you made the marks.3. Carefully place base of Baby Unit on screw and gently slide to the left until Baby Unit is securely in place. Confirm attachment to wall before letting go of Baby Unit.4. Plug in AC adapter. Ensure all wiring is properly positioned to avoid all contact and/or accessibility by children. Recommend battery power use if cable poses possible hazard.Care and CleaningUse a soft, dry cloth to keep your monitor free from dust. DO NOT immerse product in water.Cleaning Camera Lens:1. With a soft brush, such as a clean makeup brush, carefully brush away any dust and dirt particles that may be on your Camera lens. Do not skip this step as a small bit of sand or dirt left behind could scratch your lens in the next steps.2. Take a cotton swab and lightly moisten it with clean water. Carefully swab around the inside edges of your lens.3. With a dry portion of a lens cloth or soft non-abrasive tissue, buff the lens in a circular motion to dry.Helpful HintsUse household electricity whenever possible. When the AC Adapter is used with your household electricity, you will find that the power is stronger and more consistent than when you rely solely on the battery. Range and sound quality also depends on the construction of your house. Steel reinforced wall, for example, reduces the effective range of the monitor. Conserve the battery so you will have power when you don’t have easy access to AC outlets.When not using the Unit, remove AC Adapter and be sure the power button is “OFF”. When you are not using the AC Adapter, remove it from the Unit and store it in a safe, dry place until you need it again. If the AC Adapter is plugged into the Parent Unit but not being used in an electrical outlet, the AC Adapter will prevent battery operation of the Unit.When using the AC Adapter with household electricity, make sure the outlet is “ON”. Some electrical outlets are powered through a switch in the room. If the Baby Unit is plugged in and turned “ON”, the power indicator light should be lit. If it is not, try turning the light switch in the room “ON”.
