The Baby Unit operates on household electricity with the AC Adapter only. The Parent Unit will automatically convert to AC operation when used with the AC Adapter. It is not necessary to remove the battery during AC operation. The Parent Unit will automatically switch back to battery power when disconnected from the AC Adapter. The AC Adapter should be used whenever possible on the Parent Unit to save battery life. This is done by inserting the AC Adapter into the AC Adapter Jack. Then simply plug the AC Adapter into a nearby standard household outlet (120V AC outlet). The AC Adapters may become slightly warm to the touch during operation. This is normal.This AC Adapter is a low voltage power source which allows you to use your house-hold electricity to run the Baby and Parent Units when it connects to the AC Adapter Jack in the Parent Unit and in the Baby Unit, and plugs into any standard electrical outlet in your home.To remove AC adapter from the outlet, firmly grasp the adapter "brick." DO NOT pull on the cord, as this could damage it. CAUTION: This AC Adapter was made with a specific design for the Safety 1st Monitor. It cannot be used with any other appliance, and never use a different type of adapter with this Monitor.Parent Unit (Receiver):CHANNEL SELECTIONThe Monitor can broadcast over two preset factory frequencies or channels. Use setting “1” making sure that both units are set to “1”. If you experience static or noise interference, simply switch both units to channel “2”.POWER INDICATORThe power indicator is a green LED that indicates that the unit is on and functioning. Low battery power is indicated by the red LED, which signals when the battery needs to be replaced.VOLUME DIALVolume can be easily adjusted to any desired listening level by rotating the Volume Dial, so you can be sure to hear your baby at all times. The sounds are transmitted through the wide range speaker. It is essential to check reception regularly. Refer to Use and Care section.LOW BATTERY INDICATORLow battery power is indicated by the red LED, which signals when the battery needs to be replaced.EARPHONE JACKEarphones (not included) can be plugged into earphone jack on side of Parent Unit.

Do not use with extension cord. Only use the AC adapters provided.WARNING!Plug in herePower On &Channel Select hereChannel AChannel BBaby 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 4 - 6 feet (1.5 - 2 meters) 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.• Adjust the volume to a comfortable level for your environment.FREQUENCY RANGEChannel 1 Frequency: 49.850Channel 2 Frequency: 49.870Carrier Frequency: 49.850 to 49.870Field Strength is 80 dB Micro-volts per meter at 3 meters.Use 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.Make sure that both Units are on the same channel. Even though you may hear you baby’s sounds, proper use of this system requires that both Units must be on the same channel. If the Units are on different channels, the signals from the Baby Unit may still be strong enough to be picked up by the Parent Unit, but there will be a lot of static.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”.PROBLEMPower indicator light not workingStatic or interference in the signal transmissionParent Unit is making loud noisesParent Unit is picking up noises from outside your homeWeak sound coming from Parent Unit POSSIBLE CAUSEPower is not getting to the UnitBaby and Parent Units may be on different channelsAppliances with loud fans near Units may be blocking transmissionUnit may be under fluorescent lightsLocal interference from electrical or radio frequency appliance near your locationUnits are too close togetherVolume dial on Parent Unit may be too highNeighbors may have a baby monitor or cordless phoneBattery may be weakUnits may be too far away from each otherSOLUTIONMake sure wall outlet is working; may possibly need to be turned on by a switchMake sure AC adapter is plugged into wall and the UnitMake sure both Units are on the same channel (2 channel options: 1 or 2)Turn off the appliances that may be causing interferenceReduce the distance between the two Units or turn off lightsSwitch channel setting on both Parent and Baby UnitsParent Unit needs to be at least 10 feet / 3 meters away from the Baby UnitTurn down volume on the Parent UnitChange both Units to the alternative channel (4 channel option: 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B)Check battery; replace if necessaryMove the Units closer to each otherDorel Juvenile Group, Inc. warrants to the original purchaser that this Crystal Clear™ Audio Monitor, is free from material and workmanship defects when used under normal conditions for a period of one (1) year from the date of purchase.
