Important safety notices
1. Your baby monitor is designed as just an aid. It isn’t a substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision.
2. Make sure all cables and units are out of your baby’s reach – at least one metre away.
3. Never cover either unit, put them in moist places or inside the cot, bed or playpen.
4. If you travel abroad, check the voltage on your unit’s plugs match the local power output.
5. Only use the battery supplied for the Parent unit. If you need to replace it, contact our Sales or Support Team.
6. Do not take the product apart. If you need repairs, get in touch with our Support Team.
7. The Baby unit might get warm after it’s been on for a while. Don’t worry – this is normal, and it’s perfectly safe.

Place the Parent unit near a power socket in the room where you’re going to be
monitoring your baby most of the time. (Most people have their Parent unit on a bedside table).
Plug the USB end into the Parent unit, then plug the power plug into the power
socket and switch the power on.
Home
When does near become too far?
The maximum range between your Parent and Baby units is up to 300 metres outdoors, in optimum conditions, and up to 50 metres indoors, in optimum conditions. Thick walls and doors reduce the units’ range and affect how they link to each other.
Tip
You can also plug the power cable directly into your Parent unit without needing to use the charging dock.
You can also charge your Parent unit using other micro USB cables. This can be handy when you’re away from home with your baby.
Note: these cables are not included but are available as optional accessories.

Getting set up
Tip
When your Parent unit charges while switched off, it turns itself off when fully charged. This means the battery icon goes off, too.
Important note about batteries
A fully charged Parent unit will last about 6.5 hours with normal use. To speed up charging, charge the Parent unit when it’s switched off. You can also charge the Parent unit and use it at the same time, but it’ll charge more slowly and take longer to fully charge. If the Parent unit battery is low with only about 30 minutes’ charge left, you’ll hear an alert tone. If this happens, put the Parent unit back on charge if you want to keep monitoring your baby.
Pull the battery tab out of the Parent unit.

After the Parent unit has charged for ve hours you’re ready to set up your
Baby unit (camera). To get the best performance, place your Baby unit between one and two metres away from your baby. If you like, you can also attach the unit to a wall. See page 33 for how to do this.

Important note about connections
If the Parent and Baby unit lose the link or connection between
them, the link light will ash and
the screen will say the link is lost, and is trying to reconnect. If after 30 seconds there’s still no link, you’ll hear an alert tone from the Parent unit. First, check on your baby and then follow the steps from step 7 again to set up the link again.
Using your power adaptor cable, plug one end into the power plug on the Baby
unit (Camera) and the other end into the Baby unit. Plug the power plug into the power socket and switch the power on.
Press and hold the power button for two to three seconds. The link light will
ash green and the night light will light on and off.

Night vision
2828
The Baby unit has a night vision mode that allows you to monitor your baby in dark rooms. The Baby unit has infrared LEDs that are invisible to your baby so they don’t disturb or distract them.
The night vision mode will automatically turn on when the ambient light drops and the room becomes dark. The picture will turn to a black and white image.
The night vision works best when the Baby unit is placed between 1 and 2 metres from your baby (or ideally <3.5m from your baby). Any further away and the image will not be as clear.

Help and troubleshooting
33
If you have any problems setting up or using your baby monitor, see if these common questions can help.
How long does the Parent unit battery last?
A fully charged Parent unit will last about 6.5 hours with normal use. To speed up charging, charge the Parent unit when it’s switched off. You can also charge the Parent unit and use it at the same time, but it’ll charge slower and take longer to fully charge.
How do I replace the battery?
You should only use a Lithium 3.7V 2500mAh 9.25Wh battery from our Customer Support. Call us on 1300 889 785 when you need to replace it. When you get it, take off the battery compartment cover and pull the tab inside to get the old battery out. Then insert your new battery and put the cover back on.
How do I attach my Baby unit to a wall?
You get some screws and plugs with your baby monitor.
Here’s what to do.
1. Make sure the wall can support the Baby unit.
2. Make sure the power plug can reach the power socket.
3. Check that you aren’t drilling into any hidden wiring or plumbing. Oricom isn’t responsible for any damage or injury caused while trying to wall mount your Baby unit.
4. Use a pencil to mark where you want your Baby unit.
5. Check the reception strength of the Baby unit and its camera angle before drilling two 5mm holes, 37mm apart.

Help and troubleshooting
My Parent/Baby unit isn’t working. What should I do? Check that:
1. power cables are plugged in and switched on at the wall socket
2. batteries are installed correctly and fully charged
3. the units are turned on
4. the Parent unit isn’t too far from the Baby unit(s) (large obstructions or other electrical devices might affect the signal between the Parent and Baby unit).
Sometimes unplugging the power cables, waiting about 20 seconds, and then plugging them back in can help. If you do this, you’ll need to allow about a minute for Parent and Baby unit(s) to link.
My Parent/Baby unit is making a high-pitched noise. What should I do?
They might be too close together. Make sure they’re at least 2-3 metres apart.
How do I reset my Parent unit?
In Menu, tap Oricom Help then tap Factory Reset.
How do I reset my Baby unit?
Within three seconds of the Baby unit starting, press and hold down the
and buttons for about ve
seconds.
Why is my Parent unit beeping?
The Parent unit beeps when:
• your units aren’t linking – see page 3.
• there’s a problem with mains or battery power
• a crying alert is switched on – see page 25.
How do I pair the Parent unit to a camera?
select the camera menu
select which camera you need to pair
the on-screen instruction will ask you to turn on the
camera and press and hold down the night light button.
