Appendix
Operating range
This product operates with the maximum power allowed by the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC). Even so, the baby unit and the parent unit can communicate over
only a certain distance - which can vary with the locations of the baby unit, the parent
unit, the weather, and the layout of your home.
When the parent unit is out of range, the parent unit beeps and displays SEARCHING.
To improve reception, move closer to the baby unit (but not less than 3 feet).
Maintenance
Taking care of your audio monitor
Your audio monitor contains sophisticated electronic parts, so it must be treated
with care.
Avoid rough treatment
Place the baby unit and parent unit down gently. Save the original packing materials to
protect your audio monitor if you ever need to ship it.
Avoid water
Your audio monitor can be damaged if it gets wet. Do not use the parent unit and/or
baby unit outdoors in the rain, or handle it with wet hands. Do not install the audio
monitor near a sink, bathtub or shower.
Electrical storms
Electrical storms can sometimes cause power surges harmful to electronic equipment.
For your own safety, take caution when using electrical appliances during storms.
Cleaning your audio monitor
Your audio monitor has a durable plastic casing that should retain its luster for many
years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or mild soap. Do not
use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind.
Remember that electrical appliances can cause serious injury if used when you are wet or
standing in water. If the baby unit and/or parent units should fall into water, DO NOT RETRIEVE
IT UNTIL YOU UNPLUG THE POWER CORDS FROM THE WALL. Then pull the units out by
the unplugged cords.
