• If you place the parent unit next to a transmitter or
other DECT appliance (e.g. a DECT telephone or
wireless router for the internet), the connection with
the baby unit may be lost. Move the baby monitor
further away from the other wireless appliances until
the connection is restored.
• This baby monitor is intended as an aid. It is not a
substitute for responsible and proper adult supervision
and should not be used as such.
