TIPS & REMARKS

INTERFERENCE-FREE:

• This baby display monitor is digitally coded. This means

you will never receive signals from other devices, nor can

the signal from your baby unit(s) be received by e.g. your

neighbors.

• In case the baby unit(s) or parent unit is placed in

orintheclosevicinityofelectromagneticelds,the

signal (images or sound) can be slightly affected. If this

happens, try a different location for the baby unit(s)

or parent unit or move, if possible, the source of the

interference.

EAVESDROPPING/WIRETAPPING:

• Eavesdropping/wiretapping of the signals from this baby

video monitor is nearly impossible. Not only must one be

within range of the baby video monitor, one also needs

some very costly equipment.

MAINTENANCE:

• Only clean the baby monitor with a moist cloth; never

use chemical cleaners. Before any cleaning, you must

disconnect the adapters.

RANGE:

• The baby display monitor has a range of up to 300

metersinanopeneldandupto50metersindoors;this

range depends on local circumstances.

DELAY IN IMAGES AND SOUND:

• The baby unit transmits the images and sound to the

parent unit in digital blocks. The parent unit converts

these signals back to a recognizable image and a

comprehensible sound. Therefore, there is a small delay

between the moment of movement and making sounds

and the display and sounds of the parent unit.

• Besides that, the sounds and images on the parent unit

are not exactly simultaneous.
