ensure proper and safe operation of your product.
WARNING
Power connection
R Use only the power source marked on the unit. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your
home, consult your dealer or local power company.
R Do not overload power outlets and extension cords. This can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
R Completely insert the power plug into the power outlet. Failure to do so may cause electric shock and/
or excessive heat resulting in a fire.
R Regularly remove any dust, etc. from the power plug by pulling it from the power outlet, then wiping
with a dry cloth. Accumulated dust may cause an insulation defect from moisture, etc. resulting in a fire.
R If the unit emits smoke or an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual noise, immediately unplug the
power plug from the power outlet and remove the battery pack. These conditions can cause fire or
electric shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped and contact an authorized service center.
R Never touch the plug with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
Installation
R Do not use the unit in areas that are exposed to rain, moisture, steam, or oily smoke, or areas that
have excessive dust. This may cause fire or electric shock.
R Do not install or use this product near automatically controlled devices such as automatic doors and
fire alarms. Radio waves emitted from this product may cause such devices to malfunction resulting in
an accident.
R Do not perform any actions (such as damaging, altering, exposing to heat sources, or placing heavy
objects on the electrical parts and the power plug) that may damage the electrical parts and the power
plug. Using the unit with damaged electrical parts or a damaged power plug may cause electric shock,
short circuits, or fire. Contact an authorized service center for repairs.
Operating safeguards
R To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this unit. Refer servicing to an authorized
service center when service is required. Opening covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or
other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the unit is subsequently used.
R Do not touch the Base Unit, electrical parts, or the power plug during an electrical storm. There may be
a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
R Never put metal objects inside the unit. This may cause fire or electric shock. If metal objects enter the
unit, immediately unplug the power plug from the power outlet and refer servicing to an authorized
service center.
R Never spill any liquids on the unit or get the unit wet in any way. This may cause fire, electric shock, or
injury. If the unit becomes wet, immediately unplug the power plug from the power outlet and refer
servicing to an authorized service center.
R Never spill any liquids on the electrical parts or power plug, or get the electrical parts or power plug wet
in any way. This may cause fire, electric shock, or injury. If the electrical parts or power plug becomes
wet, immediately unplug the power plug from the power outlet and refer servicing to an authorized
service center.
R Unplug this unit from power outlets and refer servicing to an authorized service center when the
following conditions occur:
– If the power cord is damaged or frayed.
– If metal objects have been dropped inside the Base Unit.
Important Information

determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF (radio frequency) energy. (The unit
operates in the frequency range of 1.92 GHz to 1.93 GHz, and the RF transmission power is 115 mW
(max.).)
R Do not use the unit in health care facilities if any regulations posted in the area instruct you not to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF
(radio frequency) energy.
Installation and relocation
R The power plug is used as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the power outlet is installed near
the product and is easily accessible.
R Make sure to have sure footing when attaching or taking off the unit. Tripping over or falling down may
cause injury.

into the door so that the double-sided tape on the back of the metal plate and wireless unit sticks to
the door (A). Make sure that there are no gaps between the top of the door and the metal plate.
PRESS
PRESS
R Check that the wireless unit does not easily move around when the door is closed.
R Perform the following when the double-sided tape does not stick well to the door and the Wireless
Camera moves around easily.
(1) Remove the Wireless Camera from the door.
(2) Loosen the fixing screw, widen the distance between camera unit and wireless unit, and then
stick the additional double-sided tape to the back of the wireless unit.
Double-sided tape (included)
(3) Remove the silicon paper from the double-sided tape, then hang the Wireless Camera from
where it was positioned before.
(4) After pressing the wireless unit into the door to so that it sticks to the door, adjust the position
of the metal plate so that the distance between the wireless unit and camera unit matches the
width of the door while holding the camera unit.
Close the door, then firmly tighten the fixing screw (B) while holding the wireless unit to stop it from
moving.
R Hold the long part of the hex key and firmly tighten the fixing screw.
R Check that the fixing screw has not become loose at regular intervals.
21
Getting Started
R If the door is made of wood, make sure to use the included screws to fix the metal plate to the top
side of the door. Make sure to get permission from the owner before fixing screws to the door.
Important:
R Because the Wireless Camera uses double-sided tape with strong adhesion to prevent it from falling
down, care is needed when removing the Wireless Camera from the door. (Forcibly removing the
double-sided tape may damage the surface of the door.)

3 minutes.
R At night or at other times when the area around the Wireless Camera becomes dark, the following
occur:
– The image quality is reduced.
– Images are automatically brightened to make it easier to see the face of the other party. Although
images may appear to be washed out, this is not a malfunction.
Adjusting brightness (display)/Audio output volume/Audio input volume
Press MMENUN while monitoring.
Press MDN or MCN to select the desired item (such as brightness).
Press MFN or MEN to adjust it.
Manipulating displayed images with Wide/Zoom and Pan/Tilt
During monitoring, the display can be temporarily switched between Wide/Zoom, and the Zoom position
can be changed with pan/tilt operations.
