This monitor is not intended to be used as a medical monitor and its use should not replace proper adult supervision. You should check your child’s activity at regular intervals as this monitor will not alert parents to the silent activities of a child.

CAUTION!

For indoor use only. To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this product to water or moisture. NEVER attempt to disassemble the product. This is dangerous and will void the warranty.

WARNING!

Important!

• Please read all warnings and assembly instructions carefully before using the video monitor. Parent Unit is a Receiver. Baby Unit is a Transmitter.

• Check your child’s activity at regular intervals, as this monitor will not alert parents to the silent activities of a child.

• To prevent entanglement with the adapter cord, NEVER PLACE THE CORD IN OR NEAR A CRIB OR PLAYPEN. DO NOT place the Receiver anywhere its AC adapter cord is near children.

• ALWAYS KEEP TRANSMITTER, RECEIVER AND AC ADAPTERS OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

• This product is not a medical monitor and its use should not replace adult supervision.

• Check the reception regularly.

• NEVER use the Transmitter or Receiver near water. For example, do not use near a bath tub, bathroom sink, laundry tub, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, etc.

• Always unplug the AC adapters from wall outlets during long periods of non-use.

• Check to make sure outlet plates are not unusually hot to the touch. If they are, immediately unplug cords from these outlets. Check that all outlet connections are in good condition so that adapter is not loose or that no wiring is exposed. Have a qualified, licensed electrician check the wiring as soon as possible.

• Position the Transmitter, Receiver and AC adapters to allow adequate ventilation and prevent these components from overheating.

• To prevent overheating, keep the Transmitter, Receiver and AC adapters away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Also keep these components out of direct sunlight.

• Certain electronic devices are sensitive to magnetic fields and may be damaged permanently or temporarily disabled if exposed to a magnetic field that is too strong. Video screen will become distorted and/or discolored if exposed to a strong magnetic field.

• Use only the AC adapters provided. Use of any other adapters may damage the Transmitter and/or Receiver. Plug AC adapters into standard household current only! (120V AC) To prevent entanglement and overheating, DO NOT use extension cords.

• The AC adapters may become slightly warm to the touch during operation. This is normal.

• Position the AC adapter cords so that they are not walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at AC adapter plugs, wall plugs and the point where the cords attach to the Transmitter and Receiver.

• To remove AC adapter from the outlet, firmly grasp the adapter "brick." DO NOT pull on the cord, as this could damage it.

• The LEDs emit IR (infra red) light that is not harmful.

• This product should be serviced only by qualified service personnel at Dorel Juvenile Group when:

- An AC Adapter or its plug is damaged

- The Transmitter or Receiver has fallen

- Liquid has spilled into the Transmitter or Receiver, or
