Since continuous transmission is prohibited, you only hear your baby when it makes sounds.
The antennas on both units are fixed. Do not pull at them or try to remove them.
Preparing for use
You can use the baby monitor from the mains or on batteries.
Mains operation
1
Put the small plug in the baby unit and put the adapter in a wall socket. (Fig. )
Put the small plug in the parent unit and put the adapter in a wall socket. (Fig. )
Battery operation
Even if you do not intend to use the baby monitor on batteries, we advise you to insert batteries
into both units. This guarantees automatic back-up in case of mains failure.
Both the parent unit and the baby unit run on four 1.5-volt R6 AA batteries. We strongly advise you
to use Philips LR6 PowerLife batteries.
Replace the batteries when the power-on light blinks red when you operate the baby monitor on
batteries.
Make sure your hands and the units are dry when you insert the batteries.
Note:Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries.
Note:Remove the batteries if you are not going to use the baby monitor for a month or more.
Note:If the batteries are left in the unit when it is operated on mains power, check them for leakage
every six months.
