• The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely
high-precision technology, so over 99.99% of the
pixels are operational for effective use. However,
there may be some tiny black points and/or bright
points (white, red, blue or green in color) that
constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points
are normal in the manufacturing process and do not
affect the viewing in any way.
• Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a cold
location. This is not a malfunction.

Additional information
Precautions
On transport
When you transport the photo frame, remove the
memory card, external devices, AC adaptor, and
connected cables from the photo frame and put
the photo frame and its peripherals in the original
box with the protective packaging.
Installation
• Avoid placing the photo frame in a location
subject to:
– vibration
If you no longer have the original box and
packing parts, use similar packing material so that
the photo frame will not be damaged while being
transported.
– humidity
– excessive dust
– direct sunlight
Cleaning
– extremely high or low temperatures
• Do not use electrical equipment near the photo
frame. The photo frame will not work properly
in electromagnetic fields.
Clean the photo frame with a soft dry cloth. Do
not use any type of solvent, such as alcohol or
benzine, which may damage the finish.
• Do not place heavy objects on the photo frame.
On the AC adaptor
Restrictions on duplication
• The set is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the
wall outlet, even if the set itself has been turned
off.
• Be sure to use the AC adaptor supplied with the
photo frame. Do not use other AC adaptors, as
this may cause a malfunction.
TV programs, films, video tapes, portraits of other
people, or other materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized use of such materials may infringe
the provisions of the copyright law.
• Do not use the supplied AC adaptor for other
devices.
Disposing of the photo frame
• Do not use an electrical transformer (travel
converter), as this may cause overheating or a
malfunction.
• In case the cord of the AC adaptor is damaged,
do not use it any longer, as this may be
dangerous.
Even if you perform [Format internal memory],
the data in the internal memory may not be erased
completely. When you dispose of the photo
frame, consult with your Sony dealer or Sony
service facilities.
On moisture condensation
If the photo frame is brought directly from a cold
location to a warm location or placed in an
extremely warm or humid room, moisture may
condense inside the unit. In such cases the photo
frame will probably not work properly and may
even develop a fault if you persist in using it. If
moisture condensation occurs, unplug the AC
adaptor of the photo frame and do not use the
photo frame for at least one hour.
