Tips For Using Your Monitor
• When the monitor is in use, do not use a crib mobile or other crib accessories that may produce
vibrations. Other sources of vibrations may include fans, washing machines, loud music, etc. These
sources of vibration may interfere with the performance of your Angelcare® monitor and the alarm
will not sound if it continues to detect any movement. Be sure all vibration sources are eliminated
before using the monitor.
• There are several reasons you may experience false alarms. The most common reason is the Nursery
Unit has not been turned off after you have removed your baby from the crib. Another reason is the
Sensor Pad has not been placed under the mattress properly. Be sure the Sensor Pad is on a flat, hard
surface with the blue side facing up. The sensitivity level may also need to be adjusted. Refer to the
Movement Sensitivity Adjustment section on page 12.
• Your monitor can be used in any crib that is stationary and designed to safely hold a baby. If your
crib has a spring or slat base you will need to place a piece of Masonite board under the pad. This sup-
port must be at least 13 inches long on all four sides and 1/4 inch thick. Only use your Angelcare®
monitor in a stationary sleeping environment such as a crib where the Sensor Pad can rest on a hard,
flat surface.
• Please note the difference between the Low Battery Indicator and the Alarm Indicator on the Nursery
Unit. The Low Battery Indicator is a rapid ticking sound and the Low Battery Indicator Light turns
orange. The Alarm Indicator is a loud beeping sound and the red Alarm Indicator Light flashes.
• When unplugging the AC adapter from each unit, be sure the unit is switched to the off position. If it
isn't, the unit will revert to battery mode if batteries are installed.
• You can use rechargeable batteries, however, a rechargeable battery cannot be recharged by plug-
ging in the AC adapter. Remove batteries from the unit to recharge.
• The range of this monitor is approximately 300 feet. However, the range will vary depending on the
surroundings. Test the range before use. NOTE: This monitor is not equipped with an out-of-range indi-
cator. No sound will be received if the Nursery Unit and Parents' Unit are too far apart.
