Safety Information
- This is a decorative item, not a toy. Keep away from children under 3 years due to small parts risk.
- For wall mounting, ensure the fixing is suitable for the wall material and can support the frame's weight.
- Do not place near open flames or high-temperature appliances.
- Dispose of packaging material properly to avoid suffocation hazards.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
| Frame won't stay closed | Edges not fully pressed together; picture too thick | Ensure picture lies flat; press all edges firmly from the center outward. Use a standard photo thickness. |
| Stand is wobbly | Stand leg not fully extended or locked | Check that the stand leg is folded out completely until it clicks into place. |
| Frame leans forward/backward on table | Surface not level; stand not properly angled | Place on a level surface. Adjust the angle of the stand gently. |
| Difficulty changing picture | Edges are tight | Use a thin, flat object like a butter knife to gently pry open one corner, then work around the edge. |
| Plastic front is scratched | Abrasive cleaning or contact with sharp objects | Minor scratches may be less visible when a picture is inserted. Prevent future scratches by handling carefully. |
