CAUTION concerning the Power Cord

Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit;

That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's manual to be certain.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.

Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits the appliance.

If you don’t see an on-screen display after several minutes, some of the files may be too large — reduce the resolution of the JPEG files to less than 2M pixels as 2760 x 2048 pixels and burn another disc.

• The total number of files and folders on the disc should be less than 650.

• Some discs may be incompatible due to a different recording format or the condition of disc.

• Ensure that all the selected files have the “.jpg” extensions when copying into the CD layout.

• If the files have “.jpe” or “.jpeg” extensions, please rename them as “.jpg” file.

• File names without “.jpg” extension will not be able to be read by this DVD player. Even though the files are shown as JPEG image files in Windows
