Handling SELPHY  
O Do not apply strong force or vibration. This may cause paper jams or the printer to malfunction.  
O Do not expose SELPHY to insect sprays and volatile liquids. Do not allow SELPHY to be in contact with  
rubber or plastic products over a long time. This may deteriorate the external casing.  
O Depending on the room temperature, SELPHY may overheat and temporarily stop operating. This is not  
a malfunction. Wait for a while untill SELPHY cools down and restarts operating. Printing may take longer  
when continuously printing, the room temperature is high, or SELPHY’s rear air vent (p. 6) is blocked  
because SELPHY will temporarily stop printing due to overheating.  
O When moving SELPHY from a cold place to a warm place, insert SELPHY in an airtight plastic bag  
in advance and remove after SELPHY has reached room temperature to avoid condensation. If  
condensation forms, leave SELPHY in room temperature until the condensation evaporates naturally.  
O Clean SELPHY with a soft dry cloth.  
O If dust accumulates on the air vent (p. 6), remove the ink cassette (p. 14) and clean away the dust. The  
printing results may not be clean if dust gets in from the air vent.  
O Never clean SELPHY with solvents such as benzine or thinner, or mild detergent. This may  
deteriorate or deform the external casing, or the coating may peel off.
