Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 2.4 GHz
Wireless Surveillance System. This syst em adds safety and
security to your home or business. It can be used as a
component of an audio/video obs erv ati on sy ste m, or
expanded by adding up to three additional wireless
cameras. The audio/video jacks let you connect to a VCR
for recording purposes. In you r home, you can observe y our
baby’s room, backyard, or patio area at night or in minimal
lighting. In your business, monitor low-light store-rooms,
warehouses, entry/exit-ways, or a reception area from one
central location.

Before setting up or operating your system, please read all
these safety and operating instructions completely. Retain
instructions for future reference.
To avoid entanglement, never place the camera in a crib or
playpen.
Do not place or mount the camera on any surface or wall
where the camera and its AC adapter cord are within the
reach of a baby or other children.
Never use the camera or monitor near water. For example,
do not use near a bathtub, washbowl, laundry tub, kitchen
sink, aquarium, or in a wet basement.
Disconnect the AC adapters from wall outlets during long
periods of non-use.
Position the camera, monitor and AC adapters to allow
adequate ventilation.
Keep the camera out of direct sunlight.
To prevent overheating, keep the camera, monitor and AC
adapters away from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers)
which produce heat.

This system broadcasts its high-quality audio and video
using directional antennas, which must be oriented in
certain configurations for best results. The 2.4 GHz
antennas have been designed to pivot and have limited
rotation in either clockwise or counterclockwise
directions.
In most situations, the curved side of the antennas on both
the camera and monitor should face toward one another.
Since all rooms are different, for optimal reception,
additional slight pivots or rotations might be necessary. If
the camera and monitor are less than 10 feet (3 meters)
apart, keep the antennas flat in their casings.

Your camera and monitor mig ht cause int erference on other
radio/TV devices eve n when t hey are operati ng properl y. To
determine whether your camera or monitor is causing the
interference, turn them both off. If the interference goes
away, your surveillance system is causing it. Try to
eliminate the interference by:
• Moving your camera or monitor away from the other
device.
• Connecting your camera or monitor to an outlet that is
on a different electrical circuit from the other device.
• Contactin g your local RadioShack store for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires
that you stop using your system.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not ca us e harm fu l int erfe renc e, an d (2)
this device m ust a ccept any interfe rence receiv ed, i nclud ing
interference that may cause undesired operation.

Keep the camera and monitor dry; if they get wet, w ipe them
dry immediately. Use and store the camera and monitor
only in normal temperature environments. Handle them
carefully; do not drop them. Keep the camera and monitor
away from dust and dirt, and wipe them with a damp cloth
occasionally to keep them looking new.

If your camera or monitor is not performing as it should, take
it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. Modifying
or tampering with the camera’s or monitor’s internal
components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate
their warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate
them.
