Data Backup

Very occasionally, data stored in the Built-in memory becomes unreadable. As a backup measure, we recommend that you download important data to a PC or store the data in a media other than the Built-in memory.

Precautions When Using a SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard

•Make sure that the camera is turned off before opening the battery/Card cover.

•The SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard is equipped with a write-protect switch. Setting the switch to [LOCK] protects the existing data by prohibiting recording of new data, deletion of existing data or formatting of the card.

•Care should be taken if you remove the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard immediately after using the camera, as the card may be hot.

•Do not remove the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard or turn the camera off while data is being recorded on the card or transferred to PC using USB cable as this may cause the data to be lost or the card to be damaged.

•Do not bend the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away from water and store away from high temperature.

•Be sure to format unused SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard or SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard that have been used on another camera. Refer to “Formatting a SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard and the Built-in memory” (p.110) for instructions on formatting.

•Never remove the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard during formatting as this may cause the card to be damaged and become unusable.

•The data on the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard may be erased in the fol- lowing circumstances. Pentax does not accept any liability for data that is erased

when the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard is mishandled by the user.

when the SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard is exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.

when the card has not been used for a long time.

when the card is ejected, the AC adapter is disconnected or the battery is removed while the data on the card is being accessed.

The SD Memory Card/MultiMediaCard has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time, the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to make a backup of important data on a PC.

•Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or electrical interference.

•Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.
