To Use (continued)
WARNING:
Keep batteries away from children. Parents are urged to exercise care in the storage,
use and disposal of all batteries. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
To avoid battery leakage:
• Be sure to insert batteries correctly following instructions. Do not put batteries in backwards;
positive (+) and negative (–) ends must face the proper direction.
• Do not mix old and new, rechargeable and non-rechargeable, or carbon zinc and alkaline batteries.
• Always remove exhausted batteries from the product.
• Never use a screwdriver or any other tool to pry batteries from the compartment, as the supply terminals
may be short-circuited.
• Do not leave batteries in the monitor for long periods of non-use.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause batteries to make “popping” sounds and leak battery acid,
which could result in personal injury and damage to the monitor. If battery leakage occurs, avoid all contact
with battery acid, being especially careful to keep it away from eyes and mouth. Should contact occur, wash
any affected skin and clothing thoroughly.
Replacing Batteries
Parent Unit(s):
If Power indicator on the Parent Unit(s) glows red
instead of blue when unit is turned on, batteries
are low.
If indicator does not light at all, batteries are
dead. Replace batteries following instructions
under “To Set Up-Parent Unit(s) p.5”.
Care
To Clean:
Do not immerse the parent unit(s) or the child
unit in water. Do not use cleaning spray or liquid
cleaners.
1. Unplug the child and parent unit(s) if they are
connected to a power source.
2. Clean the child and parent unit(s) with a
damp cloth. Make sure they are dry before
re-connecting them to a power source.
3. Unplug the adaptors and clean them with a dry
cloth.
4. Dispose of used batteries in an environmentally
friendly manner.
Storage
When you are not going to use your True Choice

About Pairing Codes
The Parent Unit(s) and Child Unit are digitally “paired” at the factory. This means they are digitally
encrypted with the same electronic code so that they can securely communicate with each other and
not be confused by the signals sent out by other electronic devices, such as cell phones or other monitors.
It is unlikely, but possible, that strong electronic interference, such as a power surge, could erase this
coding. Should this occur, you can reset the pairing codes by following these steps:
To reset pairing codes:
To reset pairing codes:
1. Turn off the Parent Unit, and remove the belt clip/stand (use a small screwdriver to loosen the
holding screw).
2. Turn off the Child Unit.
3. Position the two units close together (within 3 inches).
4. Insert the end of a paper clip into the reset hole on the Child Unit.
5. Turn on the Child Unit and immediately firmly push the paper clip down and hold. Release once both
power and connection indicators start blinking. It is critical that both indicators are blinking. If this
does not happen, repeat steps 2 - 5 again.
6. Turn on the Parent Unit.
7. Insert paper clip into the reset hole on the Parent Unit, firmly push the paper clip down and release.
8. Both Units will go into regular operation mode once pairing is complete.
If this does not happen repeat steps 1 - 7.
9. If you have A200, repeat steps 1-8 for second Parent Unit.
NOTE: This pairing operation could take up to 60 seconds.
If this operation does not restore monitor functionality, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-704-8697.
