WARNING
STRANGULATION HAZARD.
Children have STRANGLED in cords:
• Keep adapter cords out of the reach of children (more
than 1 meter away).
• Because of the serious strangulation risk to infants and
toddlers, parents and caregivers should never place
the Camera within 1 meter of a cot.
• NEVER use Sensor Pad without the cord covers. Check
cord covers before each use to ensure it is securely
placed under the leg of the cot. Discontinue use of
Sensor Pad if any cord covers are damaged or broken.
• NEVER use extension cords with adapters. ONLY use
the adapters provided. This product is not a toy. Never
allow children to play with it.
STEP 2 - POSITIONING THE MOVEMENT SENSOR PAD
2.1 - SELECT A LOCATION FOR THE CAMERA
IMPORTANT
Place the cot near a supporting wall and far from air currents. Install the Camera on a
flat, stable surface facing the cot at a distance of at least 1 metre. Make sure to plug the
adapter to the socket outlet nearest to the equipment and that is easily accessible.
Place the
Camera at least
1 metre from the
cot

Use the cot leg by the wall closest to the Camera (Figure 1). In cases where the Camera is
across the room, use the leg closest to the Camera to position the covered wire (Figure 2).
It is always preferable that the covered cord run along a wall.
2.3 - INSTALL THE SENSOR PAD ON THE MATTRESS SUPPORT
IMPORTANT
If your cot does not have a solid, stable surface for the Sensor
Pad, you will need to place a support under it, to ensure correct
operation of the system.
This hardboard support should be at least 6 mm thick and should
have minimum dimensions of 33 cm x 33 cm. This support board
must be larger than the Sensor Pad surface area.
The Sensor Pad functions with any size and type of mattress except memory-foam
mattresses, hollow frame mattresses and water beds. The hardboard maintains a
constant pressure on the Sensor Pad, enabling it to detect the baby’s movements
even when the baby is at the edges of the cot.
