How your CEIVA works
Your CEIVA displays a continuous slideshow of pictures. Your source for these
pictures can be a memory card plugged directly into the back of your CEIVA.
You can also receive new photo slideshows automatically every day from your
family and friends around the world. All you need is a CEIVA PicturePlan, a
high-speed Internet connection and a wireless router (see Page 5).
Create Your Free CEIVA Account and Register Your CEIVA
You must create a free online CEIVA account and register your CEIVA in order
to get CEIVA Customer Care support and receive free software updates,
special member discounts, and services. Creating your CEIVA account also
enables you to activate your optional PicturePlan service (see page 5).
To create your account and register, go to http://gettingstarted.ceiva.com and
follow the step-by-step instructions. Please have your serial number available
when registering. The serial number is located on the bottom of your CEIVA.
NOTE: If you try to connect your CEIVA to the CEIVA Network™ before registering it,
it will display an error message.

extreme temperatures.
A power outlet is nearby.3.
Your CEIVA is in range of your wireless internet connection. For an eth-4.
ernet connection, you need an adapter (sold separately at your local retailer).
Set up Your CEIVA to Display Pictures
Plug one end of the power cord into the round power access port (la-1.
beled Power) located on the back of your CEIVA. Plug the other end of
the power cord into an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a light
switch. Your CEIVA includes a EU standard Europlug. Also included is a
1363 plug adapter for use in the United Kingdom. We recommend that
you use a surge protector power strip to prevent surges of electrical
current from damaging your CEIVA.

wish to delete. Press the Select button to choose that photo and then press
the Menu button. Choose Delete, and press the Select button. When you
mark a photo for deletion that was sent from the CEIVA Network, a trash

repeat the steps for this feature, choosing Undelete instead of Delete.

How do I customize my slideshow?
Whenever you press a button in Slideshow mode—to scan previews, for example—the slideshow automatically pauses. It will automatically resume within
a preset amount of time, depending on your slideshow settings. The default is
30 seconds. To restart the slideshow immediately, hold down the Right Arrow
button until you see the message, “Let go now to start the slideshow, or keep
holding to connect.” You can configure your slideshow based on your personal
preferences using the Slideshow Settings menu function.
How do I make my CEIVA connect to the CEIVA Network?
If you have a PicturePlan, your CEIVA will automatically connect to the CEIVA
Network to retrieve new photos as often as you like, depending on how you
configure it. You can set this feature online or by using the Connection Frequency menu function. The default is once per day.
When your CEIVA is not scheduled to connect to the CEIVA Network, you
can hold down the Right Arrow button until you see the message, “You can let
go now, I’m dialing in.” to make a manual connection.
How do I care for my CEIVA?
Dust your CEIVA regularly with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Do not spray liquids
directly onto your CEIVA. Do not immerse your CEIVA in water or otherwise
get it wet.
My CEIVA isn’t displaying photos from my memory card.
Make sure your CEIVA is in Slideshow mode. Remove the memory card, and
reinsert it. If your CEIVA does not display photos after you insert your memory card into the card reader, make sure that photos are stored on the card
by testing it on your computer or digital camera. Make sure the photos on the
card are in JPEG format, and that they are smaller than 12 megapixels in size.
