BOTH inside and outside your baby’s room, for example: fans,
washing machines, loud music, etc. Ensure that all vibration
sources are eliminated before using the Angelcare
®
Monitor.
Avoid contact with crib when monitor is in use. Refer to the

Instructions
RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS: Keep user’s manual for future reference.
WATER, MOISTURE AND HEAT DAMAGE: Keep all components
away from water (sink, bath tub, swimming pool) and places that
emit heat (stove, radiator).
VENTILATION: ALWAYS place Monitor on flat surface in an upright
position so that air can flow freely around it.
AC POWER SOURCE: Use ONLY the AC adapters supplied with the
Angelcare
®
Monitor.
CORD PROTECTION: Avoid damage to the Sensor Pad cord. The
cord is long enough to route so that it is not likely to be walked on
or pinched by items placed upon or against it.
CLEANING: Disconnect Monitor before cleaning. DO NOT immerse
in water. Use a dry cloth to keep Monitor free from dust. DO NOT
spray with cleaning products or solvents. Wipe Sensor Pads with a
very slightly damp cloth with an antiseptic or mild detergent.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY: Care should be taken so that objects
do not fall onto Monitor and that liquids are not spilled into either
Monitor or Sensor Pads through their openings.
NON-USE PERIODS: When not using monitor for long periods,
remove the batteries from Monitor.
Testing Your Angelcare
®
Monitor
NOTE: Test your Angelcare
®
Monitor BEFORE first-time use and
then on a periodic basis.
The Angelcare
®
Monitor can be used outside of the crib, in a different
sleeping area. Test monitor when moving Sensor Pads to a new
location to ensure sensitivity is adjusted correctly to the new padding
or mattress. Consult the Movement Sensitivity Adjustment section.
Step 1 Switch the power and “Tic” function to the ON positions. The
Movement indicator will flash red and then green and then emit a
single “Tic” sound. Gently place your hand on the mattress. The
green light will continue to flash with your every movement.
Remove hand from mattress. Due to no movement, a “pre-alarm
Tic” sound will emit after 15 seconds. 5 seconds later, the alarm will
sound and the red light will flash continuously.
NOTE: If alarm does not sound, the Sensor Pads may be detecting
a continuous vibration from the floor, a strong draft or the crib is
being touched. Avoid contact with crib when monitor is in use.
Place crib near a solid supporting wall and away from strong air
currents. The sensitivity of the Sensor Pads may need to be
reduced, consult the Movement Sensitivity Adjustment section.
Step 2 To stop alarm, place your hand lightly on mattress for Sensor
Pads to redetect movement. The red Alarm indicator light on the
Monitor will continue to flash 1 minute (Figure 4).
Step 3 When monitor produces a rapid “clicking” sound, replace
batteries promptly.
Movement Sensitivity Adjustment
The sensitivity adjustment dial has been preset to
suit most situations. However in certain
circumstances, the sensitivity may not be ideal. DO
NOT increase sensitivity unless false alarms occurs
and you have followed the advice in the
Troubleshooting section for false alarms. Make a
note of the pre-set position of the dial should you wish to return to it.
The movement indicator light on the Monitor will flash orange when
monitor barely detects movement. This could be a result of: baby
being in a very deep sleep or baby having moved away from Sensor
Pads to edge of crib. If alarm does NOT sound, no adjustment of
sensitivity is required. If the Movement indicator light flashes orange
most of the time with baby directly over the location of either Sensor
Pad, a false alarm may occur. If this happens, adjust the sensitivity.
To adjust sensitivity, increase dial to the next setting. Retest monitor.
