Voice activated
This monitor is equipped with a voice activated system. The nursery unit will
be activated and transmit sounds to the parents unit only when it captures
noise. This will make sure that the parents unit will only respond to its
matching nursery unit.
Night light halo
Press on the first light on top of the nursery unit to activate the night light.
AC power source
Model AC301: The AC adapters should be used whenever possible
to extend the battery life. Batteries can be kept in units while using
AC power source. Use regular AAA batteries for the AC301 model.
