You can power up 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.

Slide and lift to open the battery compartment cover.

Plug the battery connector securely into the socket.

Install the battery

Replace the battery

To replace the battery, pull the battery out of the battery compartment and unplug the battery connector from the socket, then follow the steps above to install the battery.

The operating time for using the rechargeable battery is short. If you want to monitor your baby for a long time, we recommend you connect the parent unit to AC power.

If the parent unit will not be used for a long time, disconnect and remove the battery to prevent possible leakage.

Use only the battery supplied with this product.

Use only the parent unit power adapter or the baby unit power adapter supplied with this product.

The parent unit power adapter and baby unit power adapter 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 it is plugged into a ceiling, under-the-table or cabinet outlet.

Make sure the parent unit, the baby unit and the power adapter cord are out of reach of children.

Charge the parent unit battery

Once you have installed the parent unit and

its battery, press and hold to turn it on. The battery icon indicates the battery status (see the table below). The parent unit battery is fully charged after 12 hours of continuous charging. The standby time varies depending on the sensitivity level you set, your actual use and the age of the battery.

When the parent unit is operating in battery mode and the battery is low, you need to charge the parent unit without interruption for at least 30 minutes to give the parent unit enough charge to use for a short time. When operating in low battery condition, the parent unit displays

. The light on the parent unit flashes and

the parent unit plays short beeps to alert you.

The following table summarizes the battery charge indicators and actions to take.

For better image quality, do not place the baby unit too far away from your baby.

For desktop usage and/or wall mounting the baby unit, you can refer to Installation guide.

Operating range

The operating range of the baby monitor is up to 1,000 feet outdoors or 150 feet indoors. The actual operating range may vary depending on the environmental conditions and other interferences such as walls, doors and other obstructions.

Mesures de sécurité importantes

Lorsque vous utilisez votre appareil, vous devriez toujours suivre certaines mesures de précaution de base afin de réduire les risques d’incendie, d’électrocution et de blessures corporelles, dont ceux qui suivent :

Observez toutes les instructions et mises en garde inscrites sur l’appareil.

L’installation par un adulte est requise. Ce produit a été conçu pour être un dispositif

d’appoint seulement. Il n’est pas le remplacement d’une supervision responsable et adéquate par un adulte et ne devrait pas être utilisé comme telle.

Ce produit n’est pas conçu pour être utilisé en tant que moniteur médical.

N’utilisez pas cet appareil près de l’eau ni de toute autre source d’humidité, par exemple, près d’une baignoire, cuve à lessive, évier de cuisine, dans un sous-sol humide ni près d’une piscine, dans un soussol humide ou une douche.

MISE EN GARDE: Il peut y avoir un risque d’explosion si vous utilisez le mauvais type de piles pour l’unité du parent. N’utilisez que le bloc-piles rechargeable inclus ou le bloc-piles de rechange (BT185645/BT285645). N’incinérez pas les piles. Celles-ci risqueraient d’exploser. Jetez les piles usées selon les renseignements suivant

le sceau du RBRC®.

N’utilisez que les adaptateurs inclus avec ce produit. L’utilisation d’un adaptateur dont la polarité ou la tension serait inadéquate risque d’endommager sérieusement le produit et mettre votre sécurité en péril. Adaptateur de l’unité du bébé : Entrée 100-240V CA 150mA 50/60 Hz; Sortie : 6 V CC 600 mA Adaptateur de l’unité du parent : Entrée 100-240V CA 150mA 50/60 Hz; Sortie : 6 V CC 600 mA

Lorsqu’ils sont branchés dans une prise de courant, les adaptateurs secteur ont été conçus pour être orientés correctement, soit à la

verticale ou au plancher. Les broches n’ont pas été conçues pour supporter le poids du bloc d’alimentation et le maintenir en place si celuici est branché dans une prise au plafond, sous une table ou dans un meuble.

Débranchez ce produit de la prise de courant avant de procéder au nettoyage. N’utilisez pas de nettoyants en aérosols. Utilisez un chiffon humide pour le nettoyer.

Débranchez les cordons d’alimentation avant de remplacer le bloc-piles.

Ne coupez pas les cordons d’alimentation pour remplacer les fiches, car ceci peut présenter un danger potentiel.

Ne laissez aucun objet reposer ni appuyer sur le cordon d’alimentation. N’installez pas cet appareil dans un endroit où l’on risque d’écraser le cordon d’alimentation ou de le piétiner.

Ne faites fonctionner cet appareil qu’avec le type d’alimentation indiqué sur l’étiquette. Si vous ne connaissez pas le type d’alimentation que vous possédez à votre domicile, consultez votre marchand ou votre compagnie locale d’électricité.

Ne surchargez pas les prises de courant murales ni les rallonges électriques.

Ne placez pas cet appareil sur un chariot, meuble, trépied, support de montage ni table chancelants.

Les trous et ouvertures du boîtier, situés à l’arrière de l’appareil ou sous celui-ci, servent à aérer l’appareil. Pour l’empêcher de surchauffer, ne bloquez sous aucun prétexte ces ouvertures et n’empêchez pas l’aération adéquate de l’appareil en le plaçant sur un lit, divan, tapis ou toute autre surface similaire. De même, ne le positionnez pas à proximité ni au-dessus d’une source de chaleur ou d’un calorifère. De plus, ne placez pas l’appareil dans un endroit avant de vous assurer qu’il y ait une bonne circulation d’air.

N’enfoncez jamais d’objets à travers les ouvertures de cet appareil, car ils pourraient entrer en contact avec des points de tension dangereux ou causer des courts-circuits qui peuvent dégénérer en incendies ou en risques d’électrocution. Ne renversez jamais de liquide dans ce produit.
