2.3 For best performance

Location/avoiding noise (main

The main monitor, sub monitor, and other compatible Panasonic units use radio waves to communicate with each other. (The product operates in the frequency range of 1.88 GHz to 1.90 GHz, and the RF transmission power is 250 mW (max.).) R For maximum coverage (approx. 100 m) and

noise-free communications, install your main monitor: – at a convenient, high, and central location with no

obstructions between the sub monitor and main monitor in an indoor environment.

– away from electronic appliances such as TVs,

radios, personal computers, wireless devices, or digital cordless phones.

– facing away from radio frequency transmitters,

such as external antennas of mobile phone stations. (Avoid installing the main monitor near a window.)

disturbances may occur in the unit’s image or sound.

2.4 Other important information

R The AC adaptor is used as the main disconnect

device. Ensure that the power outlet is installed near the product and is easily accessible.

Caution: R Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by

incorrect types. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Tapping

This product uses digital wireless technology so that a call is rarely intercepted. However, calls may be tapped by

a third party because the product also communicates

using radio waves.

When consideration the rights of others with regard to privacy. R It is generally said that "privacy" means the ability of

an individual or group to stop information about themselves from becoming known to people other than those whom they choose to give the information. "Rights of portrait" means the right to be safe from having your own image taken and used indiscriminately without consent.

Personal information

The main monitor’s internal memory and SD cards record personal information (image and audio recordings of visitors, etc.). Panasonic assumes no liability for any unforeseen damages arising from the exposure of the recorded information.

R Disclaimer

Recorded data may be altered or deleted as a result of incorrect operations, exposure to static electricity, accidents, malfunction, repairs or other operations. Panasonic assumes no liability for any direct or indirect damages resulting from the loss or alteration of recorded images.

R Make sure to back up recorded data, from the main

monitor’s internal memory, to an SD card and then delete all recorded data from the internal memory before sending the product for repairs. After backing up the data, make sure to remove the SD card from the main monitor.

R After backing up the data, initialize the settings of the

main monitor and sub monitor.*1 (All information saved to the internal memory is deleted when settings are initialized.) – Even if the product is sent for repairs without

being initialized, the memory (including recorded data and settings) for the main monitor or sub monitor may be cleared and set to factory default after repair.

– If operations cannot be performed due to the main

monitor or sub monitor malfunction, consult with the place of purchase for appropriate action.

By disposing of these products and batteries correctly, you

will help to save valuable resources and prevent any potential negative effects on human health and the environment which could otherwise arise from inappropriate waste handling. For more information about collection and recycling of old products and batteries, please contact your local municipality, your waste disposal service or the point of sale where you purchased the items. Penalties may be applicable for incorrect disposal of this waste, in accordance with national legislation.

For business users in the European Union

R When power fails, this product cannot be used. R For the recorded image:

The recorded image may be lost when: –

Mishandled – Electric shock or radio wave interference occurs. – The power is turned off during use.

R Panasonic may not be liable for damages due to

external factors such as power failures.

R If you stop using the main monitor and the

doorphone, remove the main monitor and the doorphone from the walls to prevent them from falling off. (Consult your dealer for information about removing the product.)

2. Important information

3. Preparation

3.1 Using SD cards (sold separately)

3. . Preparation

SD cards can be used with the main monitor to record images and calls from the doorphone and camera. (® page 19) When an SD card is not used, the main monitor’s internal memory is used to save images. In this case, only doorphone images can be saved and the memory capacity is limited. We therefore recommend using an SD card to save images.

See page 42 for information about SD cards that can be used.

3.1.1 Cautions for SD cards

R The SD card indicator (® page 11) flashes when

data is being read from or written to the SD card. Do not remove the SD card, press the RESET button (® page 11), or turn off the power to the main monitor while the SD card indicator is flashing. Failure to observe this may cause data to become corrupted.

R SD cards formatted by PCs or other devices must

be formatted by the main monitor before they can be used. (® page 41)

R When the write-protect lock

switch (A) is set to "LOCK", the SD card cannot be formatted, and images and audio cannot be recorded or deleted.

R We recommend backing up important data to a PC

or other device. Data on SD cards may become corrupted or be deleted if SD cards malfunction, or are exposed to electromagnetic waves or static electricity.

Disposing or transferring SD cards

R Users are solely responsible for the managing of

SD card data. Formatting or deleting SD cards with the main monitor, a PC or other device, only changes the file management information and does not completely delete all data stored on the SD cards. When disposing of or transferring SD cards, we recommend physically destroying SD cards or using commercially available computer software to completely delete all data in SD cards.

3.1.2 Inserting SD cards

Important: R Do not touch the SD card’s metal contacts.

1 After confirming that the screen of the main monitor

is off, insert the SD card into the SD card slot (A).

R Insert the SD card with the notched corner (B)

facing upwards until it clicks into place.

R The SD card indicator flashes and the main

monitor starts to confirm the recorded image information.

2 Confirm that "The SD card is ready." is displayed on

the screen. R The SD card indicator turns off and then the

screen automatically turns off.

Removing SD cards

After confirming that the SD card indicator is off, push in the SD card and then remove it.

When calls are not answered:

Recorded images are saved as unchecked images, and the notification indicator of the main monitor flashes.

Note:

R When there is an incoming call from another

doorphone when talking or monitoring with a doorphone (® page 30), you must end the call or monitoring in order to display and save the image from the incoming call.

R When there are multiple doorphones and there is an

incoming call from another doorphone, while receiving an incoming call, the number of recorded images (8 images), and the length of recorded videos (about 30 seconds), are reduced.

When the internal memory or SD card’s memory is full (auto image updating)

When

the memory is full, it is not necessary to manually delete images in order to record new messages because existing images, starting with the oldest image, are automatically deleted. – Images that have not been viewed are also deleted.
