AC ADAPTER
The Parent Unit operates on household electricity with the AC Adapter
or with rechargeable battery pack (included). The Baby Unit operates on
household electricity with the AC Adapter or with rechargeable battery pack
(included). 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 AC Adapter should be used whenever possible on the Baby 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
household 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.
Unplug power cord before replacing batteries.
Use only the adapters supplied with this product. Incorrect adapter polarity or
voltage can seriously damage the product.

Using Your Monitor
Using Your Monitor
SPLIT SCREEN
Split screen can be used when there is more than one Camera
paired to the Parent Unit. Press the Center Menu button then
scroll over to the split screen icon and press the center menu
again to select. Additional Genesis Camera purchase necessary.
SCAN OPTION
The monitor is designed with a scanning feature that will allow parents
to scan up to 4 cameras with each scan duration of about 8 seconds.
EXIT ICON
Select to exit screen.
BELT CLIP & FOOTREST
The Belt Clip is convenient for portability. You can clip the Parent Unit
to your belt or waistband. The Belt Clip also easily converts to a footrest.
LOW BATTERY
With power on and unit operating on battery power, a green LED will be
lit on sound lights bar. When the LED turns to red, it indicates that the
battery is dying. You need to plug in the Parent Unit within 5 to 10 minutes
after red battery LED appears or battery power will fail. You will also have a
battery icon on your parent handheld that will notify you when battery life
is low by turning red.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM BATTERY LIFE
A 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.
Adding Additional Cameras:
Note: This product can accept up to 4 cameras. To order an additional
camera (#MO114), please contact our Customer Service Department by
phone at 1-800-544-1108 or visit www.safety1st.com
• Plug the AC adapter into AC jack in the bottom of the Camera and

plug in the Baby Unit within 5 to 10 minutes after red battery LED appears or
battery power will fail. You will also have a baby unit battery icon on your
parent handheld that will notify you when battery life is low by turning red.
PROPER POSITIONING
IMPORTANT: 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.

FCC Statement
Use and Care
Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT – 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 Camera
Mounting 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 Cleaning
Use 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, bu the lens in a
circular motion to dry.
Helpful Hints
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
eective 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”.
