• Insert the plug of the AC adaptor firmly, if the  
connection is loose, the photo frame may turn off  
when it is moved.  
• After use, remove the AC adaptor from the  
DC IN 5 V jack of the photo frame, and remove the  
AC adaptor from the outlet.  
• Even if your photo frame is turned off, power will  
still be supplied if the AC adaptor remains  
connected and plugged into the wall outlet.  
• Do not turn the photo frame off or disconnect the  
AC adaptor from the photo frame before the  
standby indicator turns red. Doing so may damage  
the photo frame.

About the AC plug  
Attaching the AC plug  
Attach the AC plug to the AC adaptor main  
unit as follows:  
PUSH tab clicks when the AC plug is slid firmly  
into place.  
Notes  
• If handled roughly, the AC plug may become  
detached from the AC adaptor main unit and remain  
in the wall outlet. If this occurs, grasp the AC plug  
with dry hands as illustrated above and remove it  
from the wall outlet. Do not use a tool. Be careful  
not to touch the metal terminals at the rear of the  
AC plug.  
Notes  
• Check to see if there is no trouble with the AC  
adaptor main unit and AC plug, and then slide the  
AC plug into the AC adaptor main unit until it  
clicks into place.  
• The AC plug may be removed from the AC adaptor  
main unit by pushing the “PUSH” tab. When using  
the AC adaptor, however, you do not have to  
remove the AC plug. Make sure to use the AC  
adaptor with the AC plug firmly attached. If the AC  
plug is removed, slide it into the AC adaptor main  
unit until it clicks into place as illustrated above.  
• If there is any problem with the AC adaptor main  
unit or AC plug, consult with your Sony service  
facilities for repair.

Notes  
Inserting a memory card  
• When inserting the memory card, it will only insert  
part of the way, so do not try to force it as this could  
damage the memory card and/or photo frame.  
Insert the memory card firmly into the  
corresponding slot with its label side  
facing toward you (when you are facing  
the back side of the photo frame).  
• The “Memory Stick PRO” (Standard/Duo)/SD  
memory card/MMC/xD-Picture Card multi-purpose  
slot automatically detects the card type. The slot is  
also both a “Memory Stick” standard and Duo size  
compatible slot, so you do not need a “Memory  
Stick” adaptor.  
The access lamp flashes when the memory card  
is inserted correctly. Reinsert the memory card  
after checking the label side of the memory  
card if the access lamp does not flash.  
• Do not insert cards both into the slot Aand B  
simultaneously.  
• Before using a memory card, see “About memory

checked by qualified personnel before  
operating it any further.  
• In case the cord of the AC adaptor is  
damaged, do not use it any longer, as this  
may be dangerous.  
On moisture condensation  
• Never disassemble the photo frame.  
• To disconnect the power cord, pull it out by  
the plug. Never pull the power cord itself.  
• When the photo frame is not going to be  
used for an extended period of time,  
disconnect the power cord from the wall  
outlet.  
• Do not handle the photo frame roughly.  
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always  
unplug the photo frame from the electrical  
outlet before cleaning and servicing the  
photo frame.  
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 power cord of the photo frame  
and do not use the photo frame for at least one  
hour.  
On transport  
When you transport the photo frame, remove  
the memory card, 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.  
On installation  
• Avoid placing the photo frame in a location  
subject to:  
– vibration  
– humidity  
– excessive dust  
– direct sunlight  
– extremely high or low temperatures  
• Do not use electrical equipment near the  
photo frame. The photo frame will not work  
properly in electromagnetic fields.  
• Do not place heavy objects on the photo  
frame.  
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.  
On cleaning  
Clean the photo frame with a soft dry cloth, or a  
soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild  
detergent solution. Do not use any type of  
solvent, such as alcohol or benzine, which may  
damage the finish.  
On the AC adaptor  
• Even if your photo frame is turned off, AC  
power (house current) is still supplied to it

• If you insert a “Memory Stick Micro” into an  
“M2”adaptor, and insert the “M2” adaptor  
into a “Memory Stick Duo” adaptor, the  
photo frame may not operate properly.  
• When you format a “Memory Stick”, use the  
format function of your digital camera. If  
you format a “Memory Stick” with your  
computer, images may not be displayed  
properly.  
*1  
The photo frame has been demonstrated as  
operable with an SD memory card with a capacity

Use a CompactFlash card with a power  
specification of 3.3V or 3.3V/5V. You cannot use  
a type for 3V or 5V only. Do not insert other types

instructions of the adaptor you use for how to  
install the card and adaptor. When using a  
CompactFlash card adaptor, a write-protected card  
may not work properly.  
Notes on using a memory card  
• When using a card, make sure to check the  
correct insertion direction of the card and the  
correct insertion slot.  
• When inserting the memory card, it will only  
insert part of the way, so do not try to force  
it, as this could damage the memory card  
and/or photo frame.  
• Do not remove a card or turn off the photo  
frame while the photo frame is reading or  
writing data, or the access indicator is  
flashing. Otherwise, data may be rendered  
unreadable or be erased.  
• We recommend that you save a backup of  
important data.
