5. Notes on Electric Smog

The topic of "electric smog" is discussed everywhere today . There is hardly any other field where so
many opinions of scientists, public institutions and sensitive persons clash. While some deny any effect
on the human body at low transmitter/radiation output, others believe that insomnia, nervousness, tired-
ness and other problems are caused by radio signals.
Due to the low transmission power, danger to your child by the babyphone can be ruled out on the basis
of current knowledge.
Nevertheless, we recommend you to maintain a safety distance of at least one metre (1m) between your
baby and the transmitter.
Never place the transmitter in the cot or next to it.
You should of course also keep the plug-in power unit or other electric devices at least one metre away
from your baby. This applies not only because of possible electro smog, but also for safety reasons.
6. Information on Batteries and Rechargeable
Batteries
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
• Check that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries (pay attention to
plus/+ and minus/-).
• Do not leave the batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly; there is a risk of them being
swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries might cause acid burns when getting into con-
tact with skin. Therefore, use suitable protective gloves.
• Make sure that the batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into fire. There is a danger
of explosion!
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a danger of explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries
intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• Remove the batteries when you do not use the device over a period of time (e.g. when stored). Old
batteries might leak and consequently damage the product. Warranty will be void!
• For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read the
chapter on "Disposal".
