Congratulations
on purchasing your new VTech product. Before
using this product, please read Important
safety instructions.
This manual has all the feature operations
and troubleshooting necessary to install and
operate your new VTech product. Please
review this manual thoroughly to ensure proper
installation and operation of this innovative and
feature rich VTech product.
What’s in the box
Install the battery
You can power on the parent unit by connecting
it to AC power or to the rechargeable battery
provided. Even if the parent unit is connected to
AC power, we recommend you also install the
battery. This guarantees continual operation in
case of a power outage.
Install the battery as shown below.
Press down on the large tab of the battery
•
compartment cover to pull it out.
THIS SIDE UP
Make sure the label THIS SIDE UP is facing up
•
while inserting the battery.
Replace the battery
To replace the battery, press down on the
large tab of the battery compartment cover
and pull it out, then follow the steps above to
install the battery.
Connect and charge the
battery
Use only the battery supplied with this product.
•
Use only the power adaptors supplied with this
•
product.
Make sure the electrical outlets are not controlled
•
by wall switches.
The power adaptors are intended to be correctly
•
oriented in a vertical or floor mount position. The
prongs are not designed to hold the plug in place
if they are plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table
or cabinet outlet.
Make sure the parent unit, the baby unit and the
•
power adaptor cords are out of reach of children.
Connect the baby monitor
Charge the parent unit battery
When you have connected the parent unit and
installed its battery for the first time or after a
power outage, the parent unit will power on
automatically. The battery icon indicates the
battery status (see the following table).
•
The parent unit battery is fully charged after
3 hours of continuous charging.
•
It takes longer to charge the battery when the
parent unit is turned on. To shorten the charging
time, turn the parent unit off while charging.
•
The standby time varies depending on the
sensitivity level you set, your actual use and the
age of the battery.

Place the wall mount bracket on a wall and then use a
pencil to mark the top and the bottom holes as shown.
Remove the wall mount bracket and drill two holes in the
wall (7/32 inch drill bit).
Align the wall mount bracket and screws with the holes in
the wall as shown. Tighten the screw in the middle hole
first, so that the wall mount bracket position is fixed. You

Place the baby unit on the wall mount bracket. Tighten the
screw into the threaded socket at the bottom to secure
the baby unit.
If you drill the holes into a stud,
go to step 3.
-OR-
If you drill the holes into an object other than a stud, insert
the raw plugs into the holes. Tap gently on the ends with a
hammer until the raw plugs are flush with the wall.
Insert the screws into the holes and tighten the
screws until only 1/4 inch of the screws is exposed.
OR
Place the baby unit on the wall mount bracket. Tighten the
screw into the threaded socket at the bottom to secure the
baby unit. Align the holes on the wall mount bracket with
the screws on the wall, and slide the wall mount bracket
down until it locks into place.

to see your baby clearly at night or in a dark
room. When the baby unit being viewed
detects low light levels, the infrared LEDs are
switched on automatically. The images from

It is normal if you see a short white glare on your
•
parent unit screen as the baby unit is adapting to
the dark environment.
When the infrared LEDs are on, the image is in
•
black and white. This is normal due to external
light sources.
Depending on the surroundings and other
•
interfering factors, like lighting, objects, colours
and backgrounds, the display resolution may vary.
Adjust the baby unit’s angle or place the baby unit
at a higher level to prevent glare and blurry display.
