alarm control unit (as determined from your daily testing of the
product) during use and keep background noise to a minimum. Each

or if the cot base is soft or padded, place plywood (not supplied) on
the cot base, place the sensor pads on the plywood and place the
mattress firmly on top to enable full contact of the sensor pads with
the mattress.
