Safety Instructions

PictureMate PM 300 / PM 310

When using a memory card

Use only memory cards compatible with the printer. See 
“Inserting a Memory Card” on page 10

When using LCD screen

The LCD screen may contain a few small bright or dark 
spots, and because of its features it may have an uneven 
brightness. These are normal and do not indicate that it is 
damaged in any way.

Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the LCD screen. Do not 
use liquid or chemical cleansers.

If the LCD screen is damaged, contact your dealer. If the 
liquid crystal solution gets on your skin, wash them 
thoroughly with soap and water. If the liquid crystal solution 
gets into your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If 
discomfort or vision problems remain after a thorough 
flushing, see a doctor immediately.

When using the optional Bluetooth Photo 
Print Adapter

Refer to the Bluetooth Photo Print Adapter's 
documentation for the safety instructions.

When handling photo cartridges

Observe the following when handling photo cartridges:

Do not shake photo cartridge after removing it from the bag; 
this can cause leakage.

Do not remove or tear the label on the cartridge; this can 
cause leakage.

Use the photo cartridge before the date printed on the 
cartridge carton.

Do not disassemble or remodel the photo cartridge, 
otherwise you may not be able to print normally.

After bringing a photo cartridge inside from a cold storage 
site, allow it to warm up at room temperature for at least 
three hours before using it.

Store photo cartridges in a cool, dark place.

The IC chip on the photo cartridge retains a variety of 
cartridge-related information, such as the photo cartridge 
status so that the cartridge may be removed and reinstalled 
freely.

If ink gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water. If 
it gets in your eyes, flush them immediately with water. If 
you still have discomfort or vision problems, see a doctor 
immediately.
