Important Safety Information
• It is very important that you read the User Guide carefully as it contains detailed
information you will need to get the most from your Oricom Baby Monitor. If you have any issues setting up or using your Oricom Baby monitor please call our Customer support team. Our dedicated local team are more likely to be able to help you than the retailer where you made your purchase.
• 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 at all times, at least one metre away.
• Never place the baby unit or parent 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. Never use or place your Parent or Baby unit in or near moisture or water (e.g. near bath or pool). Immersing in water could cause electric shock and even death.

• The installation location plays an important role in ensuring proper operation.
Therefore, maintain a distance of at least one meter from other electronic
equipment, such as microwave ovens or hi− devices, otherwise they could
cause interference. During continual use the Baby unit power adaptors may become warm to the touch. This is normal and should not be a concern.
Warning
Risk of suffocation!
!
Keep all packaging materials and protective foils out of reach of children. Do not place the AC Adaptor cable in a high "wear and tear" location. Never use a frayed or compromised cord.
Battery safety
• Batteries represent a hazard to health and the environment!
• They contain toxic, ecologically hazardous heavy metals. Do not dispose of batteries in a re as they may explode. Dispose of batteries according to local
regulations, never in your household rubbish.
• Do not dismantle, cut, open, crush, bend, puncture, or shred cells or batteries. If
a battery leaks, do not let the battery liquid touch skin or eyes. If this happens,
immediately flush the affected areas with water, and seek medical assistance.
Do not modify, remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, or immerse or expose it to water or other liquids. Batteries may explode if damaged.
• Use only the batteries supplied with the product. Improper use, or use of unapproved batteries may present a risk of re, explosion, or other hazard, and
may invalidate any approval or warranty.
If you believe the batteries are damaged, remove product from the charger and stop using the product. Contact Oricom for assistance. Never use a damaged battery.
Disposal

Battery performance
Rechargeable batteries in the Parent unit will last up to 20 hours in normal use. Please note that new
batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in normal use for several days.
The charge capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as they wear out, so reducing the performance time of the Parent unit. Eventually they will need to be replaced. New batteries can be obtained from the Oricom Digital Baby Monitor Support Centre 1300 889 785.
The Parent unit rechargeable batteries will lose charge over a period of time, even if switched off.
Battery low warning – Parent unit
When the batteries are low – approximately within 1 hour of running out – the Parent unit will emit a low battery alert and the low battery indicator on the unit will turn red. Place the Parent unit back on the charger to charge the batteries. To speed up the charging process turn the Parent unit off when
charging if it’s not being used. You can still use your Parent unit to monitor your baby even when the batteries are low, provided it remains in the charger cradle to re-charge the batteries.

damage the unit. Charge the batteries as instructed in this user guide. The Parent unit can still be used when it is in the charger.

IMPORTANT
The link conrmation between the two units is vital for use so they can communicate. If
!
the link between the units is broken at any time, the Link indicators on the Parent and
Baby units will flash green as they try to search for each other. After 30 seconds, if the link is still broken they will flash red and you will also hear an alert signal from the Parent
unit.
16
If the link is broken:
• check that the mains power is plugged in and switched on at the Baby unit
• check that both units are switched on
• check that the batteries are charged in the Parent unit
• check that the Parent and Baby units are within range of each other (in ideal
conditions the range is up to 300 metres outdoors and 50m indoors)
Positioning your units
The Baby unit should ideally be within 1m-2m of your baby for best performance.
If you place the Parent and Baby units too close together you will hear a high pitched noise, this is normal. The units are designed to be located at a distance from one another, e.g. in separate rooms.
