This product is NOT a substitute for direct supervision of your baby. Check your baby at regular intervals. Monitoring of premature
babies, or those considered to be at risk, should be carried out only under the supervision of a doctor or health professional.
The Sensor Pad may detect movement from many sources both inside and outside your baby’s room. (i.e. Fans, washing
machines, loud music, etc.). Ensure that all vibration sources are eliminated before using your Angelcare

nursery monitors in your area. Your monitor may even be picked up by other households. For your own privacy, make sure that
both units are in the OFF position when not in use.
This product should be serviced by qualified personnel only. There are no user serviceable parts inside the monitor. Refer all
service questions to your distributor (see page 7).
