IMPORTANT
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communication. However,this is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on,the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Your Photo Frame (DPF) enables you to view digital pictures from a
memory card. The DPF is compatible with these card formats: SD™
(Secure Disk),SDHC™ (Secure Disk High Capacity), MMC™(Multimedia
Card), and MS™ (Memory Stick). The DPF will play .jpg (jpegs). Other
picture formats should be converted to jpgs via photo editing software.
FILES AND FOLDERS
You may group your photos into Albums (folders) with pictures inside
each album. The DPF reads the folders and plays the photos in sets but
you cannot select individual folders. The player needs time to load and
display pictures. Lots of high resolution photos will slow loading times.
UNPACKING
The carton should contain:
• The Photo Frame: USB cable : 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 player carefully remove any protective film
covering the screen. Take care not to press on the screen.
