Unscrew battery cover and remove   from Parent Unit (Figure 1). 2. Align connectors of the Parent Unit and   rechargeable battery pack (Figure 2).3. Place rechargeable battery pack inside   Parent Unit (Figures 3 & 4).4. Secure battery cover with its screw.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 6 feet (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.The first time you use your monitoring system, two adults should test it in the following way:•  Place Parent Unit at least 20 ft. (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 reception. Try Parent Unit in every location that it will be used.Care and Cleaning:Use a soft, dry cloth to keep your monitor free from dust. DO NOT immerse product in water.IMPORTANT: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”.Dorel Juvenile Group, Inc. warrants to the original purchaser that this 900 MHz 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.
