Range and Placement:
The system offers a talking range of up to 0.5 miles in open areas and can be effective for room-to-room communication within a 1.5-mile radius in ideal conditions. Obstacles like thick walls, metal structures, and electronic interference can reduce the effective range. For optimal performance, place units in central locations and avoid obstructions.

6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the devices with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the batteries regularly. Charge them when the low battery indicator appears. If storing for extended periods, charge the batteries to about 50% every few months.
- Storage: Store the intercom units in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Water Resistance: The devices are water-resistant, but not waterproof. Avoid submerging them in water. If they get wet, remove the battery (if removable) and allow them to dry completely before re-using.
