WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION 1
Do not place the cord in a high "wear and tear" location.
Never use a frayed or compromised cord.
IMPORTANT
Please read this user guide thoroughly before use.
Never use or place your Parent or Baby units in or near
moisture or water (e.g. near bath or pool). Immersing in
water can cause electric shock and even death.
Your ORICOM Baby Monitor is designed to be an aid and
should not be used as a substitute for responsible and
proper adult supervision of a child.
The Baby Monitor has been designed to provide some
added reassurance in the form of sound transmission
for those times when you are not in the same room as
your baby provided you always stay within hearing range
of the baby monitor during use. Your Baby Monitor is
not a medical device, nor a device to prevent cases of
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SID'S) or "cot death",
and you should not rely on it for your baby's wellbeing. It is
important that you regularly check on your baby personally.
Power requirements
In Australia this product requires an electrical supply of
220-240 volts, single phase/alternating current.
CAUTION
Use only the mains power adaptors supplied with this
equipment. Incorrect adaptor polarity or voltage can
seriously damage the unit and/or cause physical harm
and even death. The adaptors may become warm during
use, please take care when handling.
!
Make sure the Baby unit, Parent unit and mains adaptor
cables are kept out of reach of your baby and other young
children within the house at all times, at least one metre
away from the baby's cot.

Battery requirements
able to be recycled once they are unable to recharge
during normal operation. Always observe your local
Council /State regulations regarding the disposal of
your packaging materials, exhausted batteries, and old
equipment.
Each parent unit requires two rechargeable Ni-MH
batteries, size AAA 1.2V 800mAh (HR10/44).
• Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire, as they can
explode.
• Always recycle where possible. Do not use your baby
monitor in an explosive hazard area such as where
there is gas leaking.
• Do not open, unscrew or temper with any of your
baby monitor units or battery. Always carry out repairs
through your authorised ORICOM representative or
other duly qualified tradesperson.
• As there is a slight chance that the product could be
damaged by an electrical storm, it is recommended that
users unplug from the mains supply during an electrical
storm.
• Released electrolyte from the battery is corrosive
and can cause damage to the eyes or skin. It can
be toxic and fatal if swallowed. If there is any sign of
poisoning, immediately call emergency 000.
Cleaning and care
• When your Baby Monitor is not in use, it is recom-
mended that you disconnect it from the mains supply
and remove the batteries.
The surface of the case can be cleaned with a dry, soft,
lint-free cloth. Never use cleaning agents, particularly
aggressive solvents. Apart from occasional cleaning of the
case, no other care is necessary.
• Observe the proper polarity, or direction, of any
battery. Reverse insertion of the battery cell can
result in leakage or explosion and in turn harm or
even death.

rooms.
To prevent feedback, do not take the parent unit into the
nursery/baby's room.

back of the Baby Unit by switching
the OPEN switch. Insert 3 alkaline
batteries of the type AA (not

Rechargeable batteries in the Parent unit give up to 10
hours continuous usage. Please note however, that new
batteries do not reach full capacity until they have been in
normal use for several days.
8 lights illuminated

Running rechargeable batteries right down at least once a
week will help them last as long as possible. The charge
capacity of rechargeable batteries will reduce with time as
they age, so reducing the performance time of the parent
unit. Eventually they will need to be replaced.
