WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT

Please read this user guide thoroughly before use.

Your ORICOM Baby Monitor is designed to be an aid and
should not be used as a substitute for responsible and
proper adult supervision of a child.

The Baby Monitor has been designed to provide some
added reassurance in the form of sound transmission
for those times when you are not in the same room as
your baby provided you always stay within hearing range
of the baby monitor during use. Your Baby Monitor is
not a medical device, nor a device to prevent cases of
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SID'S) or "cot death",
and you should not rely on it for your baby's wellbeing. It is
important that you regularly check on your baby personally.

Make sure the Baby unit, Parent unit and mains adaptor
cables are kept out of reach of your baby and other young
children within the house at all times, at least one metre
away from the baby’s cot.

Never place the baby unit inside your baby’s cot, bed or
playpen.

Never cover the Parent or baby units with clothes, towels
or blankets or any other item.

Do not place the cord in a high "wear and tear" location.
Never use a frayed or compromised cord.

Never use or place your Parent or Baby units in or near
moisture or water (e.g. near bath or pool). Immersing in
water can cause electric shock and even death.

Power requirements

This product requires an electrical supply of 220-240 volts,
single phase alternating current.

CAUTION

!

If you plan to use your Baby monitor whilst travelling
overseas, make sure that the voltage shown on the mains
power adaptor is the same as the local mains power before
connecting to the power supply. Do not use any voltage
converter with the monitor.

Use only the mains power adaptors supplied with this
equipment. Incorrect adaptor polarity or voltage can
seriously damage the unit and/or cause physical harm
and even death. The adaptors may become warm during
use, please take care when handling.

2 WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION

Battery requirements

Each parent unit requires two rechargeable Ni-MH
batteries, size AA 1.2V 1300mAh.

• Do not dispose of the batteries in a fi re, as they can
explode.

• Do not open, unscrew or temper with any of your
baby monitor units or battery. Always carry out repairs
through your authorised ORICOM representative or
other duly qualifi ed tradesperson.

• Released electrolyte from the battery is corrosive
and can cause damage to the eyes or skin. It can
be toxic and fatal if swallowed. If there is any sign of
poisoning, immediately call emergency 000.

• When your Baby Monitor is not in use, it is recom­mended that you disconnect it from the mains supply
and remove the batteries.

• Observe the proper polarity, or direction, of any
battery. Reverse insertion of the battery cell can
result in leakage or explosion and in turn harm or
even death.

• The Ni-MH batteries supplied with this product may be
able to be recycled once they are unable to recharge
during normal operation. Always observe your local
Council /State regulations regarding the disposal of
your packaging materials, exhausted batteries, and old
equipment.

• Always recycle where possible. Do not use your baby
monitor in an explosive hazard area such as where
there is gas leaking.

• As there is a slight chance that the product could be
damaged by an electrical storm, it is recommended that
users unplug from the mains supply during an electrical
storm.

Cleaning and care

The surface of the case can be cleaned with a dry, soft,
lint-free cloth. Never use cleaning agents, particularly
aggressive solvents. Apart from occasional cleaning of the
case, no other care is necessary.

GETTING STARTED

4 Press [ ] to turn the Parent Unit on.

• Before fi rst use, or if it has been out of use for a long
time, the Parent Unit will need to be charged for 14
hours. During this time, the Parent Unit will operate
from the Charger pod when switched on. Note that the
Parent Unit cannot be used without batteries, even if it
is placed in the charger.

For the Baby Unit

1 In event of a power failure, your Baby Monitor can switch

to battery power. It is therefore recommended that you
insert non-rechargeable batteries in the Baby Unit.

2 Remove the battery cover on

the back of the Baby Unit by
pressing and sliding it down.
Insert 4 alkaline batteries of the
type AA (not provided) as marked
on the unit and close the cover
again. Do not use rechargeable
batteries in the Baby Unit.

3 Plug the power cord into the power input at the side of

the Baby Unit and plug the adaptor plug into a mains
power socket.

4 Press [ ] to turn on the Baby Unit.

• The Baby Unit should be placed about 1 metre
to 1.5 metres away from the baby’s cot on a flat
surface. Never place the Baby Unit inside the cot,
bed or playpen. Make sure the unit, cords and mains
adaptor are out of reach of the baby and other
young children. Never place either Unit on antique
or polished surfaces (as slippage or scuffing may
occur). The unit may cause harm if it falls onto baby
or other young children.

Note:

If you place the Parent and Baby units too close together
you will hear a high pitched noise called "feedback", this is
normal. The units are designed to be located in separate
rooms.

To prevent feedback, do not take the Parent unit into the
nursery/baby's room.

Do not press the Talk button when the Baby unit and
Parent unit are positioned in the same room. Feedback will
be generated if the talk button is pressed when the Baby
unit and Parent unit are within 3 metres of each other.
