Precautions on Usage

This product cannot replace responsible adult supervision of a child. It is designed to assist adults in child supervision. Do not use it for medical monitoring of a sick baby or child. The transmitter detects normal sound levels within a range of 2 to 3 meters (6 to 10 feet) from a child. If the child moves outside of this range, it may not be able to detect sounds from him or her. It is essential that you check the operating range and condition of the Sound-Sensor Nursery Monitor on initial installation, and on a regular basis after that. Stay close to the receiver in order to hear normal sounds from it. Check the volume regularly to ensure that it is set high enough. Recharge the rechargeable battery pack (NTM910) or replace the batteries (NTM-900) in the receiver or operate it on house current as soon as the POWER/BATT indicator starts flashing and the receiver sounds a beep. Be sure to place the transmitter out of the childs reach. Do not place the transmitter inside a crib or playpen. The receiver can be affected by other devices in or near your home that may interfere with the signals sent by the transmitter. Such interference can be caused by TV sets, cordless phones, vacuum cleaners, car ignitions, and other electrical devices. You should test the receiver when you expect such devices to be in operation while you are using the Sound-Sensor Nursery Monitor. The signal from the transmitter can be received by another receiver, as it uses a public air wave.

The VOICE ACT function eliminates most background noise when the receiver does not detect any sound. Set the OFF/ON/VOICE ACT switch to VOICE ACT to turn on this function. When the receiver receives sounds from the transmitter, the MONITOR indicators light up from left to right in five steps depending on the sound level. Only one indicator may light up if the sound from the transmitter is not loud, or all the indicators may light up if the sound is very loud. You can also hear sounds through the speaker. To adjust the volume The volume of the sounds you receive varies depending on the loudness of the babys voice, distance between the transmitter and the baby, direction of the built-in microphone of the transmitter, obstructions, etc. Set the volume as required using VOL. If the volume level is set too high and is accompanied by a shrill noise, reduce the volume. The volume level can be adjusted between the smallest and biggest dots on the VOL. Notes Avoid placing the units near heat sources or where they are subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, moisture, or mechanical shock. Be careful not to drop the receiver in water, or drop any liquid over it. Do not use the antenna as a carrying handle. Do not use the antenna to hang the receiver on the wall. Be sure to use the cavity for hook.
