materials until you have made sure your new Digital Video Baby Monitor is
undamaged and in good working order. The carton is recyclable. Whenever
possible, reuse the carton and recycle it when disposing of the packaging
materials.
• Dispose safely: Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies
and young children, so ensure all packaging materials are out of their
reach. Dispose of any plastic wrapping safely.
• Inspect: Unwind the cord of the power adaptor and inspect it for damage;
do not use it for charging the product if there are any signs of damage. In
case of damage, contact our after sales support centre for advice.

warnings in this manual. Refer to the Product Overview on pages 6-7 to

the unit to a wall, as described below.
• Adjust the camera unit until you are satisfied with the image in the parent
unit.
NOTE
Do not place the baby unit within baby’s reach! If there is interference
on the picture or sound, try moving the units to different locations, and
ensure they are not close to other electrical equipment.
Wall-mounting instructions
• Use the template on the right to mark
the wall in the correct places to drill
holes for wall-mounting screws.
• Insert 4mm head screws (not supplied)
into the holes and tighten the screws.

automatically pick up the video. If the units fail to find each other,
power both units off to reset, or re-register them (see page 13).
• If the baby unit is out of range, the receiver unit will display
“Connecting...”. Move the receiver unit close to the camera unit.

Getting Started (Cont.)
Testing the video and audio monitor before use
It is important to check the camera and receiver units are working properly
when you are first setting it up, and at regular times thereafter. Also ensure
you test the units if they have not been used for a long time, or when you
suspect they are defective. To test:
• Place the receiver unit and the camera unit in the same room. Make sure
the camera unit is at least 1 metre away from the parent unit to avoid any
audio feedback. If you still experience audio feedback, move the parent
unit and the baby unit further apart.
• Turn on the camera unit and then the receiver unit. Wait until the receiver
unit pairs with the camera unit and the receiver unit displays the image
from the camera unit.
• Adjust the position and angle of the camera unit until you are satisfied with
the image on the receiver unit.
NOTE
• For better image quality, do not place the camera unit too far away
from your baby.
• You may need to turn the speaker volume louder on the receiver unit by
pressing the Volume +/Up button to hear the sounds transmitted from
the camera unit.
• The operating range of the video and audio monitor is up to 300m in
an open area. The actual operating range may vary depending on the
environmental conditions and other interference such as walls, doors
and other obstructions.

My receiver unit’s screen goes blank after 20 seconds. Why is that?
The receiver unit is set to VOX system mode and the LCD backlight timer
is set to 20 seconds, which will cause the LCD screen to turn off after 20
seconds. To keep the LCD screen always on, change the system mode to
‘Normal’ via settings menu (see page 14).
Is the video recorded so I can play it back later?
No, the unit does not record video; it only transmits it in real time.
