SET UP THE BABY MONITOR
2.2 Baby unit battery installation
You can power up the baby unit by connecting it to AC power and
installing four AA alkaline batteries. Even if the baby unit is connected to
AC power, you must also install four AA alkaline batteries for the baby
unit to operate. This can also guarantee continual operation in case of a
power outage..
Install four AA alkaline batteries (not supplied) into the battery
compartment, matching the polarity markings (+and -) inside the battery
compartment.
Make sure the ribbon attached inside the battery compartment is put
under the batteries and the excess ribbon is tucked in properly. Then
replace the battery compartment cover.
Gently pull the ribbon
and lift up to remove the
batteries
Notes
Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline and standard
(carbon-zinc) batteries.
The operating time for using AA batteries is short, only for a few hours. If you
want to monitor your baby for a long time, we recommend you connect your
baby unit to AC power.
If the baby unit will not be used for a long time, disconnect and remove the
battery to prevent possible leakage.
You can use rechargeable AA batteries for the baby unit, but the baby unit
cannot charge rechargeable batteries.
