INTRODUCTION

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), and MS™ (Memory Stick).
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 box should contain:

•     The Picture Frame 
•     External Power Adapter 
•     Stand
•     User Guide
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 Picture Frame carefully remove any protective 
fi lm covering the screen. Take care not to press on the screen.

A

fter Use

Switch the set off  via the POWER switch.
Unplug the adaptor 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.

Further Information

The screen resolution is 480x234 pixels. This is 
a total resolution of 112,500 pixels (0.125MP). 
High resolution pictures will slow loading 
times without improving viewability.
After extended use, the frame may get warm. 
This is normal and not a cause for concern.
Contrary to popular belief, if you leave a static 
picture on the screen for a long time you may 
leave a permanent ‘after image’ on the screen. 
Slide show mode stops this from occurring.

Care and Cleaning

Care and cleaning operations should be carried 
out with the unit unplugged from the mains. 
Clean the plastic parts with a barely damp 
cloth and then dry carefully. 
Do NOT touch the screen with bare fi ngers, hard 
or pointed objects. Clean the screen carefully 
with a special cloth, such as a Calotherm cloth 
available from chemists and opticians.
