TIP
The baby unit has infrared LEDs that
allow you to see your baby at night or
in a dark room. When the baby unit
detects low light levels, the infrared
LEDs turn on automatically.

Night vision
When the infrared LEDs are on, the
image is in black and white. This is
normal due to external light sources.
Depending on the surroundings and
other interfering factors, like
lightings, objects, colors and
backgrounds, the display resolution
may vary. Adjust the baby unit’s
angle, or place the baby unit at a
higher level to prevent glare and
blurry display.
NOTE
Use a pencil to mark two holes
in parallel. Make sure they are
the same distance apart as the
wall mount at the bottom of the
baby unit.
Drill two holes in the wall (7/32” drill bit).
If you drill the holes into a stud, insert
the screws into the holes.
Tighten the screws until only 1/4 inch of
the screws are exposed.
Align the holes on the wall mount
with the screws on the wall.
Slide the wall mount down until it
locks into place.
Adjust the baby unit angle.
Check for reception strength and
camera angle before drilling the holes.
