19 TROUBLESHOOTING If your DPF seems not to be working as well as you might expect, please work through this checklist before returning the product to Tesco. The DPF will not switch on. Switch off, Check the power supply connections, switch on again. The DPF will not recognise a memory card. You were playing another card when you inserted this card. Re-insert the card. You may need to reformat the card. The DPF will not play pictures on a card. The pictures must be in jpg form and smaller than 8000 x 8000 pixels. My PC will not recognise the DPF. You may have a USB drive inserted in the frame. Remove the drive, remove the USB cable. Switch the frame off and on. Re-insert the USB cable.the PC will now recognise the frame. The DPF will not copy pictures to a card. The card is full. The card is write-protected. The card will need re-formatting even though you can play pictures from the card on the DPF. The handset is erratic. The handset is too far from the frame. There is something between the handset and the DPF. Replace the battery. AFTER USE Switch the set off via the POWER switch. Unplug the adaptor from the mains and then unplug the adaptor from the Picture Frame. 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. Note: Though you can leave the frame in Standby indefinitely we do not recommend this for the following reasons: The USB ports are powered in standby. The connected AC adaptor cable could be a source of danger. You will consume power unnecessarily. Further Information The screen resolution is 800x480 pixels. This is a total resolution of 385,000 pixels (0.385MP). 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. Page 19

20 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.
