Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 2.4 GHz

Wireless Surveillance System. This system adds safety and security to your home or business. It can be used as a component of an audio/video observation system, or expanded by adding up to three additional wireless cameras. The audio/video jacks let you connect to a VCR for recording purposes. In your home, you can observe your baby’s room, backyard, or patio area at night or in minimal lighting. In your business, monitor low-light store-rooms, warehouses, entry/exit-ways, or a reception area from one central location.

Before setting up or operating your system, please read all these safety and operating instructions completely. Retain instructions for future reference.

To avoid entanglement, never place the camera in a crib or playpen.

Do not place or mount the camera on any surface or wall where the camera and its AC adapter cord are within the reach of a baby or other children.

Never use the camera or monitor near water. For example, do not use near a bathtub, washbowl, laundry tub, kitchen sink, aquarium, or in a wet basement.

Disconnect the AC adapters from wall outlets during long periods of non-use.

Position the camera, monitor and AC adapters to allow adequate ventilation.

Keep the camera out of direct sunlight.

To prevent overheating, keep the camera, monitor and AC adapters away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other appliances (including amplifiers) which produce heat.

Use only the AC adapters provided. Use of any others may damage the camera and/or monitor.

Both camera and monitor are battery powered so they can work during a power failure. To activate the battery power, you must disconnect the AC adapters from both the camera and monitor. For optimum performance, we recommend alkaline batteries (available at your local RadioShack store).

The battery power lasts eight hours for the camera and 2.5 hours for the monitor.

Select a location for the camera that provides a clear view of the area you want to monitor, and that is free from dust. The location should not be in line-of-sight with a strong light source or in direct sunlight.

Have a person hold the camera against the wall at the selected mounting area, while another person moves the monitor to various locations throughout the house to check reception. If interference or other problems develop, refer to

“Troubleshooting” on Page 9. You may need to select a different location in the room for mounting the camera.

This system broadcasts its high-quality audio and video using directional antennas, which must be oriented in certain configurations for best results. The 2.4 GHz antennas have been designed to pivot and have limited rotation in either clockwise or counterclockwise directions.

R

In most situations, the curved side of the antennas on both the camera and monitor should face toward one another.

Since all rooms are different, for optimal reception, additional slight pivots or rotations might be necessary. If the camera and monitor are less than 10 feet (3 meters) apart, keep the antennas flat in their casings.

Your camera and monitor might cause interference on other radio/TV devices even when they are operating properly. To determine whether your camera or monitor is causing the interference, turn them both off. If the interference goes away, your surveillance system is causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by:

• Moving your camera or monitor away from the other device.

• Connecting your camera or monitor to an outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from the other device.

• Contacting your local RadioShack store for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your system.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

%#4'

Keep the camera and monitor dry; if they get wet, wipe them dry immediately. Use and store the camera and monitor only in normal temperature environments. Handle them carefully; do not drop them. Keep the camera and monitor away from dust and dirt, and wipe them with a damp cloth occasionally to keep them looking new.

5'48+%'"#0&"4'2#+4

If your camera or monitor is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. Modifying or tampering with the camera’s or monitor’s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate their warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate them.
