8. Useful information about the baby monitor
•
If you operate the parent unit with the battery, this minimises electrosmog
from electrical and magnetic alternating fields.
• You can increase the range of the baby monitor by positioning the camera as
high up as possible near a door or window and by ensuring that the battery is
not too weak.
• Other radio waves may possibly interfere with the transmission of the baby
monitor. Therefore, do not position the baby monitor near devices such as
microwaves, WLAN, etc.
• The following other factors can interfere with the baby monitor's transmission
or shorten its range: furniture, walls, houses, trees, environmental factors (such
as fog, rain).
9. Maintenance and cleaning
The service life of the camera and the parent unit depend on careful handling.
IMPORTANT
• Remove the battery from the parent unit if the video baby monitor is not in use
for an extended period.
• You will get the maximum capacity from your battery if you run down the
battery at least once every six months. To do this, disconnect the parent unit
from the mains and run the battery down through normal use. Then fully
charge the battery up again.
• The maximum battery capacity can only be reached after it has been
charged several times and is dependent on many factors (battery state,
ambient temperature, and frequency of charging, etc.).
• Protect the camera and the parent unit from knocks, damp, dust, chemicals,
drastic changes in temperature, electromagnetic fields and nearby sources of
heat (ovens, heaters).
• Clean the camera/parent unit with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use any abrasive
cleaning products.
