Angelcare Baby Monitor posted 11/22/2013

Angelcare Monitors Inc. is voluntarily recalling 600,000 baby monitors following the death of two infants due to strangulation.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indicated that a cord attached to the sensor pad, which is placed under the crib mattress to monitor movement, poses a strangulation risk if the child pulls the cord into the crib.

The recall involves all versions of Angelcare sensor monitors including model numbers: AC1100, AC201, AC300, AC401 AC601 and 49255 that did not include rigid cord covers. The model number is located on the back of the nursery monitor unit.

Consumers should stop using the product and contact Angelcare at (855) 355-2643, e-mail at Consumers@angelcare.ca or online at http://www.angelcarebaby.com for more information.
