Angelcare AC701 Owner's Manual page 89

15.19 Power Lines - An outside antenna
system should NOT be located in the
vicinity of overhead power lines or other
electric light or power circuit, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits as
contact with them may be fatal.
15.20 WARNING Strangulation Hazard —
Children have STRANGLED in cords. Keep
use. Immediately discontinue use of Sensor
Pad(s) if protective covering is damaged
or broken.
15.21 Interference - This monitor uses
public air waves to transmit signals .
The Parent Unit may pick up signals or
interference from other nursery monitors
in your area. Your monitor may even be
picked up by other households. To protect
your privacy, make sure both units are
turned OFF when not in use.
15.22 Vibration Source - 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 other than your baby's. Be sure
all vibration sources are eliminated before
using the monitor.
You may experience false alarms for several
reasons. 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 Pads have not
been placed under the mattress properly.
Be sure the Sensor Pads are on a flat, firm
surface with the printed side facing up.
The sensitivity level may also need to be
adjusted. Refer to step 5.1. Always be sure
to immediately check on baby whenever
an alarm sounds.
15.23 Sensor Pads - Your Sensor Pads
can be used in any crib that is stationary
and designed to safely hold a baby. If
the crib has a spring or slat base, place
a hard board between the crib base and
the Sensor Pads measuring at least 13"
x 13" (33 x 33 cm) and 1/4 inch (6 mm)
adapter cords out of
the reach of children
(more than 1 m away).
NEVER use Sensor
Pad(s) without the
p r o t e c t i v e c o r d
c o v e r i n g . C h e c k
p r o t e c t i v e c o r d
covering before each
thick. Only use your Angelcare
in a stationary sleeping environment such
as a crib where the Sensor Pads can rest
on a completely flat, firm surface. ALWAYS
route the Sensor Pad cord below crib
mattress and out of reach of children.
The sensor pad is made of plastic and does
not permit the air to circulate. Therefore,
mildew build up could develop underneath
the mattress in the sensor pad area. We
suggest rotating the mattress regularly to
prevent any mildew.
