IINTRODUCTION
Your Digital Picture Frame (DPF) enables you to view digital
pictures from either a memory card or from a USB drive.
The DPF is compatible with the following card formats: SD™
(Secure Disk), MMC™(Multimedia Card), MS™ (Memory Stick) and
SDHC (Secure Disk High Capacity).
The Frame will also support a USB 2.0 or 1.1 drive.
PICTURE FORMATS
The DPF will play pictures conforming to the .jpg (jpeg) standard.
Other picture formats must be converted to jpgs via photo editing
software (not supplied).
FILES AND FOLDERS
You may have your pictures grouped into Albums (folders) with
several pictures inside each album. The DPF will read the pictures and
play them in sets but you cannot identify or select individual folders.
The DPF will take time to load and display pictures. Lots of high
resolution pictures will slow loading times considerably.
UNPACKING
The carton should contain:
• The Photo Frame
• External Power Adapter

• Operating Manual
If any items are missing or damaged, contact your nearest TESCO store
for a replacement. Have your receipt ready when you call. Retain the
packaging. If you dispose of it, do so having regard to any recycling
regulations in your area.
Before using the Photo Frame carefully remove any protective
