– If the set does not operate normally when following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are specified in the operating
instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician to restore
the set to normal operation.
Installation
Water and Moisture
Do not use power-line operated sets near water – for
example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming
pool, etc.
– When the set exhibits a distinct change in
performance – this indicates a need for service.
Power-Cord Protection
Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against
them, paying particular attention to the plugs,
receptacles, and the point where the cord exits from
the appliance.
Servicing
Do not attempt to service the set yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Accessories
Replacement parts
Do not place the set on an unstable cart, stand, tripod,
bracket, or table. The set may fall, causing serious
injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to the
set. Use only a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer.
When replacement parts are required, be sure the
service technician has used replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer that have the same
characteristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.
Ventilation
The slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of
the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots
and openings must never be blocked or covered.
– Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or
other materials.
Safety Check
Upon completion of any service or repairs to the set,
ask the service technician to perform routine safety
checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to
determine that the set is in safe operating condition.
– Never block the slots and openings by placing the
set on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
– Never place the set in a confined space, such as a
bookcase, or built-in cabinet, unless proper
ventilation is provided.
– Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat
register, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
Lightning
For added protection for this set during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will
prevent damage to the set due to lightning and power-
line surges.
Service
Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the set from the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the following
conditions:
– When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.

Additional information
Precautions
while connected to the wall outlet via the AC
adaptor.
• 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.
On safety
• Be careful not to set or drop any heavy
objects on the power cord, or to damage the
power cord in any way. Never operate this
photo frame with a damaged power cord.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
cabinet, unplug the photo frame and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
• In case the cord of the AC adaptor is
damaged, do not use it any longer, as this
may be dangerous.
On moisture condensation
• Never disassemble the photo frame.
• To disconnect the power cord, pull it out by
the plug. Never pull the power cord itself.
• When the photo frame is not going to be
used for an extended period of time,
disconnect the power cord from the wall
outlet.
• Do not handle the photo frame roughly.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always
unplug the photo frame from the electrical
outlet before cleaning and servicing the
photo frame.
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 power cord of the photo frame
and do not use the photo frame for at least one
hour.
On transport
When you transport the photo frame, remove
the memory card, external devices, 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.
On 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.
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.
On cleaning
Clean the photo frame with a soft dry cloth, or a
soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Do not use any type of
solvent, such as alcohol or benzine, which may
damage the finish.
On the AC adaptor
• Even if your photo frame is turned off, AC
power (house current) is still supplied to it
