• If you did not tap the right spot, try the calibration again.
• Touch Screen Calibration can also be performed, as described in “Changing the Settings”
(page 56). The purpose of the Touch Screen Calibration is to adjust the reaction of the
touch screen properly. Perform it if the touch screen does not react on the tapped position.
• This photo frame employs a resistive-film (pressure-sensitive) touch panel. The pressure-
sensitive panel operates when it detects pressure from your tapping on the panel. The panel
will respond more precisely when you apply pressure to a small area (a point). It is
recommended to tap the panel with a fingertip or plastic fine object. If the panel is tapped
with weak force or on a wide area (with the ball of a finger), it may be slow to respond.
• The touch panel responds to a single point only. Be careful that other finger or part of your
hand does not touch the screen.

demonstration display appears automatically. The demonstration display closes when a
memory card with image data is inserted, or when any button other than 1 (on/satndby) is
pressed.
• Do not simultaneously insert multiple memory cards and USB flash drive into the memory
card slots A/B or the USB connector. Do not insert memory cards into slots A and B
simultaneously. It may be a cause of breakage of the photo frame.

– Owing to the characteristics of memory card devices, images may be subject to data errors
when read too often.
– Do not run a slideshow for a long time with a small number of images. This may cause data
errors.
– We recommend you back up images in the memory card often.
• The slideshow will not start from the point where you stopped if you turn off.
• When the screen is too bright, it may make you feel nauseous. Be careful not to have the
brightness set too high when you use the photo frame.
