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
• Remote Control Handset
• 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 lm covering the screen. Take care not to press on the screen.

AFTER USE
Though you can leave the frame in Standby indenitely we do not recommend this for the following reasons:

• You will consume power unnecessarily. Otherwise, switch the set o via the POWER switch. Unplug the adap-
tor from the mains and then unplug the adaptor from the DPF. Unplug any memory card or USB stick. Store the unit and power adaptor in a cool dry place, out of the reach
of children and pets.
CARE AND CLEANING
Care and cleaning operations should be carried out with the unit un­plugged from the mains.
Clean plastic parts with a barely damp cloth and then dry carefully. Do NOT touch the screen with bare ngers, hard or pointed objects. Clean the screen carefully with a special optical cleaning cloth available
from opticians and photography stores.
