Full Product Description

The recall involves all models of Summer Infant video baby monitors with electrical cords. The monitor comes in various colours and the recall also includes a corded camera.

Corrective Action

Consumers should immediately check the location of the video monitors, including cameras mounted on the wall, and all electric cords to make sure the cords are secured at least one meter (three feet) away from their child and then contact Summer Infant to receive a new permanent electric cord warning label about the strangulation risk and revised instructions about how to safely mount camera and keep cords out of child's reach.
The purpose of the recall is to provide new warning labels to be affixed to the product and safe installation instructions for all models of Summer Infant video baby monitors with electrical cords.

For more information, consumers may contact Summer Infant at 1-800-426-8627 between 8AM and 5PM ET Monday through Friday or visit the Summer Infant Website will take you to another Web site Summer Infant's website .
