Perhaps the baby unit is not connected to the power. Insert the appliance plug into the baby unit and put the adapter in a wall socket. Then, slide the ON/OFF switch to ON to switch on the baby unit and to establish connection with the parent unit.

Make sure the power is not controlled by a wall switch.

The screen is in black and white during night-time or in a dark room when the night vision feature is activated. This is normal.

During night-time or in a dark room, the surroundings and other interfering factors, like lightings, objects, colors and backgrounds may affect the image quality on your parent unit screen. Adjust the baby unit’s angle or place the baby unit at a higher level to prevent glare and blurry display.

The parent unit and baby units may be too close to each other.

• Move the parent unit away from the baby units until the noise stops; OR

• Turn down the volume of your parent unit.

The baby units may be out of range. Move the parent unit closer to the baby units (but not less than 3 feet).

The parent unit may not have enough charge for the parent unit to perform normally. Charge the battery in the parent unit for up to 11 hours.

The temperature of your baby’s room may be too high or too low. The parent unit speaker volume may be too low. Press VOL to increase the volume, or

use the parent unit menu to change sound sensitivity level to the highest level (level 5).

The baby units may be out of range. Move the parent unit closer to the baby units (but not less than 3 feet).

2. L’installation par un adulte est requise.

3. MISE EN GARDE: N’installez pas l’unité du bébé à une hauteur supérieure à 2 mètres.

4. Ce produit ne remplace pas la surveillance adulte du nourrisson. La supervision du nourrisson est la responsabilité du parent ou de la personne qui s’occupe de l’enfant. Ce produit pourrait cesser de fonctionner et, par conséquent, vous ne devriez pas présumer qu’il continuera de fonctionner correctement pendant une période de temps donnée. De plus, il ne s’agit pas d’un instrument médical et ne devrait pas être utilisé comme tel. Ce produit est destiné à vous aider à superviser votre bébé.

ATTENTION : N’utilisez que la pile fournie. Il peut y avoir un risque d’explosion si un mauvais type de pile est utilisé pour l’unité du parent. La pile ne

peut pas être soumise à des températures extrêmes hautes ou basses et à une pression atmosphérique basse à haute altitude pendant l’utilisation, le stockage ou le transport. L’élimination de la pile dans le feu ou dans un four chaud, ou l’écrasement ou le découpage mécanique de la pile peuvent entraîner une explosion. Laisser la pile dans un environnement à température extrêmement élevée peut entraîner une explosion ou la fuite d’un liquide inﬂammable ou d’un gaz. Une pile soumise à une pression atmosphérique extrêmement basse peut provoquer une explosion ou une fuite de liquide ou de gaz inﬂammable. Éliminez la pile usagée

conformément aux informations ﬁgurant sur le sceau RBRCᴹᴰ.

7. 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.

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

16. 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.

17. 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.

18. Aﬁn de réduire les risques d’électrocution, ne démontez pas cet appareil, mais apportez-le dans un centre de service autorisé. L’ouverture du boîtier ou le retrait de toutes pièces que contient cet appareil, à l’exception de l’accès autorisé à certaines portes ou ouvertures, risque de vous exposer à des points de tension dangereux ou d’autres dangers. Un remontage incorrect peut par la suite présenter des risques d’électrocution.

19. Vous devriez tester la réception chaque fois que vous mettez l’appareil en fonction.

20. Examinez les composantes aﬁn de vériﬁer si celles-ci ne sont pas endommagées.

3. Le bloc-piles ne doit pas être exposé à la chaleur excessive telle que la lumière du soleil ou au feu.

4. Assurez-vous que le moniteur et le cordon de l’adaptateur sont toujours hors de portée des enfants, àau moins 1 mètre (3 pieds) de l’enfant ou du berceau, pour éviter tout risque de strangulation.

5. Ne jamais placer le moniteur à l’intérieur du berceau ou du parc de bébé. Ne jamais couvrir le moniteur ou l’unité (s) portative avec un article tel une serviette ou une couverture.

6. D’autres équipements électroniques peuvent produire des interférences sur votre moniteur vidéo et audio. Tentez d’installer votre moniteur vidéo ou audio à l’écart des appareils électroniques tels que des routeurs sans fil, radios, téléphones cellulaires, interphones, moniteurs, téléphones, ordinateurs personnels, électroménagers et téléphones sans fil.

Stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme

Les simulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux dispositifs numériques sans fil) : L’organisme ‘Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une firme de recherche indépendante, a mené une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences entre les téléphones sans fil portatifs et les stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme. Appuyée par l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA) des États-Unis, la firme WTR recommande aux médecins:

Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques

• Vous devriez maintenir les dispositifs sans fil à au moins six pouces du simulateur cardiaque.

• Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans fil directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de chemise, lorsque celui-ci est en

marche.

L’étude effectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas identifié de risque pour les détenteurs de simulateurs cardiaques causés par les gens qui utilisent dispositifs sans fil à proximité de ceux-ci.
