2.3 For best performance

Location/avoiding noise (main monitor/sub
monitor)
The main monitor, sub monitor, and other compatible
Panasonic units use radio waves to communicate with
each other. (The product operates in the frequency
range of 2.4 GHz and 2.48 GHz with a peak
transmission power of 100 mW (max.).)
R For maximum coverage (approx. 100 m) and noise-
free communications, install your main monitor:
– at a convenient, high, and central location with
no obstructions between the sub monitor and
main monitor in an indoor environment.
– away from electronic appliances such as TVs,
radios, personal computers, wireless devices, or
digital cordless phones.
– facing away from radio frequency transmitters,
such as external antennas of mobile phone
stations. (Avoid installing the main monitor near
a window.)
R If you use the sub monitor near a microwave oven
which is being used, noise may be heard. Move
away from the microwave oven and closer to the
main monitor.
R Coverage and voice quality depends on the local
) with
environmental conditions.
Environment (main monitor/sub monitor)
R Keep the unit (main monitor/extension monitor and
sub monitor) away from electrical noise generating
devices, such as fluorescent lamps and motors.
R The unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
R The unit should be kept away from heat sources
such as radiators, cookers, etc. It should not be
placed in rooms where the temperature is less than
0 °C or greater than 40 °C. Damp basements should
also be avoided.
R Do not install the product in locations that are
suspect to sudden changes in temperature. Failure
to do so may cause condensation to form on the
product causing malfunction.
R Even when the main monitor and sub monitor are
used within 100 m of each other, obstructions can
cause weak signals, noise, interrupted
transmissions, distorted images and slow image
refresh rates. Obstructions can include:
– Metal doors or metal shutters.
– Heat insulation including aluminium foil.
– Concrete walls or walls made of galvanized iron
sheet.
– If the sub monitor is being used in a different
building, or a different part of the house, i.e. a
different floor to the where the main monitor has
been installed.
– Many walls.
– Double insulated glass windows.
R Some types of hearing aids may receive noise from
wireless communications between the main monitor,
sub monitor, and other compatible Panasonic units.
R Operating the unit near electrical appliances may
cause interference. Move away from the electrical
appliances.
R In areas surrounded by a high electrical field,
disturbances may occur in the unit's image or
sound.
