SOUND RECEPTION  
It is very important to test the sound reception of the  
Direct Link Privacy Monitor™ before first-time use  
and whenever you change the location of the transmitter.  
• Test the Direct Link Privacy Monitor™ transmission and  
reception. Have an adult speak into the transmitter in the room  
you intend to use the transmitter. (If an adult is not available,  
use a ticking clock or radio.) Place the receiver in the room in  
which you intend to use the receiver. Adjust the receiver  
location or volume dial until you hear sounds clearly through  
the receiver.  
• If you experience interference (buzzing, static, etc.) while using  
one channel setting, switch both units to the other channel.  
Selecting a channel is usually a one-time adjustment.  
• If interference occurs on both channels or if further problems  
develop, please refer to the Problems and Solutions Guide  
beginning on page 10.
