Clear Connection Rechargeable Nursery Monitor
O w n e r ’s Guide Thank you for purchasing the Safety 1s t Clear Connection Rechargeable Nursery
M o n i t o r. This is a state-of-the-art system that combines some of the most unique
f e a t u r es that any baby monitor offers. We are confident that you will appre c i a t e
its many highlights. As you will soon learn there are many more feature s . . .
The Baby’s Unit (Transmitter) has continuous transmission that clearly sends
your baby’s sounds to the Pare n t ’s Unit. This gives you the ability to continue
with your daily activities throughout the house or yard and at the same time
monitor your baby.
The Pare n t ’s Unit (Receiver) remains with you wherever you go to pick up the
sounds that are transmitted from the Baby’s Unit. It conveniently clips to your
belt or easily stands on a table.
Both units are completely portable or AC powered. The AC Adapter allows the
receiver and transmitter to be plugged into any standard electrical outlet for use
with your household electricity. For convenient use without an outlet, use a
re c h a r geable battery pack for the Pare n t ’s unit and a 9 volt alkaline battery for
the Baby’s unit (Batteries not included).

to charge for at least 4 hours be fo r e first use. This will ensure that your battery is fully charged. The green LED light on the
c h a r ging stand will illuminate when the receiver is placed into it and the charging contacts are engaged.
Using the Pa re n t’s Un i t :
STEP 1 Place the Pare n t ’s Unit at least 10 feet from the Baby’s Unit.
STEP 2 Place the charging stand in a location where the Receiver will remain in high use, for example, bedroom, kitchen, etc.
STEP 3 Plug the charging stand into electrical outlet.
STEP 4 When the Receiver is in the charging stand, the battery will continue to charge during normal operation.
STEP 5 Tu r n the Pare n t ’s Unit “OFF” and leave unit in charging stand when not in use. This will allow the battery to receive
a complete charg e .

level indicators are preset in the factory and are not affected by the volume setting. This feature allows you to see the re l a t i v e

•Make sure that both units are on the same channel. Even though you may hear your baby’s sounds, proper use of this system
re q u i r es that both units must be on the same channel. If the units are on diff e rent channels, the signals from the Baby’s Unit
may still be strong enough to be picked up by the Pare n t ’s Unit, but there will be a lot of static.
•When unit is not in use, remove AC Adapter and be sure the power dial is “Off ” .
•Use your Baby’s Unit AC Adapter when you will be in the same location for most of the day. Use of the adapter provides
maximum power to the unit and provides additional antenna length.
•When using the AC Adapter with household electricity, make sure the outlet has power. Some electrical outlets are
p o w e r ed through a wall switch in the room. If the Baby’s Unit is plugged in and turned “On”, the power indicator light
should be lit. If it is not, try turning the wall switch in the room “On”.
