Precautions

Installation

???Avoid placing the photo frame in a location subject to:

???vibration

???humidity

???excessive dust

???direct sunlight

???extremely high or low temperatures

???Do not use electrical equipment near the photo frame. The photo frame will not work properly in electromagnetic fields.

???Do not place heavy objects on the photo frame.

On transport

When you transport the photo frame, remove the memory card, AC adaptor, and connected cables from the photo frame and put the photo frame and its peripherals in the original box with the protective packaging.

If you no longer have the original box and packing parts, use similar packing material so that the photo frame will not be damaged while being transported.

Cleaning

Clean the photo frame with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or benzine, which may damage the finish.

On the AC adaptor

???The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned off.

???Be sure to use the AC adaptor supplied with the photo frame. Do not use other AC adaptors, as this may cause a malfunction.

???Do not use the supplied AC adaptor for other devices.

???Do not use an electrical transformer (travel converter), as this may cause overheating or a malfunction.

???In case the cord of the AC adaptor is damaged, do not use it any longer, as this may be dangerous.

On moisture condensation

If the photo frame is brought directly from a cold location to a warm location or placed in an extremely warm or humid room, moisture may condense inside the unit. In such cases the photo frame will probably not work properly and may even develop a fault if you persist in using it. If moisture condensation occurs, unplug the AC adaptor of the photo frame and do not use the photo frame for at least one hour.
