Screw the screw into the wall.
Be sure the screw head protrudes between 2.5 mm and 3 mm (1/8 in) from the surface of
the wall.
2
Hold the transmitter and turn it until it clicks.
3
Mount the transmitter on the screw.
Between 2.5 mm
and 3 mm (1/8 in)
CAUTION
ˎ The transmitter clicks when it is turned to the maximum angle. Do not try to turn it any further.
ˎ
ˎ When mounting the transmitter on a wall, use the screw suitable to the wall material or strength. Attaching screw
ˎ
may damage the wall. Attach the screw firmly to a pillar or a stud in a wall, if possible.
ˎ Connect the AC adaptor cord to the transmitter, mount the transmitter on the wall, then connect the AC adaptor to
ˎ
a wall outlet.
ˎ Sony is not responsible for accidents or damage caused by improper installation, insufficient wall strength or
ˎ
improper screw installation, natural calamity, etc.
ˎ Fasten the screw securely so that the transmitter does not fall off the wall.

1
Open the jack cover of the DC IN 5V jack.
2
Connect the supplied AC adaptor to the DC IN 5 V jack and plug it into a wall outlet.
3
Open the stand, and adjust the receiver angle.
Notes
ˎ Place the receiver on a stable surface. If the receiver is placed on an unstable surface or in an inclined position, it
ˎ
may fall or topple over, and may cause injury.
ˎ Adjust the receiver angle until it is stable. If you incline the receiver too much, the it may topple over.
ˎ
Carrying the receiver
When you carry the receiver by hanging it on your neck or attaching it to your belt, the receiver
operates on the built-in battery. The BATT/CHG indicator light will show the remaining battery
power.
Attaching a strap to the receiver
Note
ˎ No strap is supplied. Use a strap of sufficient strength.
ˎ
Attaching the receiver to your belt
Belt
Note
ˎ If you attach the receiver to your belt using the belt clip, handle it carefully to avoid dropping it.
ˎ
Built-in battery (Receiver only)
When the receiver is connected to the AC adaptor and the built-in battery has discharged to a
certain level, the built-in battery starts charging automatically and is charged up to full charge.
Battery life
It will last about 16 hours after it has been fully charged (when operated with the medium
volume level, and Voice Activation off).
Charging duration
About 7 hours are required to charge the empty battery to its full capacity, in an ambient
temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). Charging may take longer, depending on whether or not the
receiver is turned on and other ambient conditions.
Checking the remaining battery power
When the battery power is getting low, a beep sounds and the BATT/CHG indicator light of the
receiver flashes in red.
Notes
ˎ If you consume the battery power completely and leave it like that, the battery life may be affected. Charge the
ˎ
battery by connecting it to the AC adaptor as soon as it has been used up.
ˎ Even if you do not intend to use the receiver for a long period, charge the battery to its full capacity once every
ˎ
6 months to maintain its performance.

Customizing the Digital Audio Nursery Monitor
Adjusting the volume
The volume of the sounds you receive varies depending on the loudness of the baby's voice,
distance between the transmitter and the baby, direction of the built-in microphone of the
transmitter, obstructions, etc.
Set the volume as required using the VOLUME control. If the volume level is set too high and is
accompanied by a shrill noise, reduce the volume.
To increase sound volume, turn the VOLUME control downward. The green area of the
VOLUME indicator is extended.
To decrease sound volume, turn the VOLUME control upward. The green area of the VOLUME
indicator is reduced.
The sound volumes decreased.
VOLUME indicator
(Green)
The sound volumes increased.
VOLUME control
Note
ˎ The SOUND LEVEL indicator lights turn on according to the input sound level received from the transmitter. The
ˎ
level setting of the VOLUME control does not affect it.
Using the Voice Activation function
The Voice Activation function ensures that when the transmitter has detected sound of more
than a certain volume, monitor sound is automatically output from the speaker of the receiver.
This function is usable when it is not required for the receiver to constantly check for sounds
from the nursery, such as when the baby is sleeping quietly or the parents are sleeping.
1
Set the Power/VOICE ACT switch to VOICE ACT to turn the function on.
