Using a Memory card (SD/MMC) (not supplied)

✤Samsung is not responsible for data loss due to misuse.

✤Turning the power off / ejecting the memory card during memory operation such as formatting, deleting, recording, and playback may damage the data.

✤You may modify the name of a file / folder stored in the memory card using a PC. The Sports Camcorder may not recognise modified files.

✤It is recommended that you power off before inserting or ejecting the memory card to avoid losing data.

✤It is not guaranteed that you may use a memory card formatted on other devices. Be sure to format your memory card using the Sports Camcorder.

✤Save important files separately on other media, such as floppy disk, hard disk, or CD.

✤You have to format newly-purchased memory cards, memory cards that the Sports Camcorder cannot recognise or the cards that have data saved by other devices.

✤A memory card has a certain life span. If you use it for a long time, you may not be able to record new data. In this case, you have to purchase a new memory card.

✤Do not bend, drop, or apply a strong impact to the memory card.

✤Do not use or store in a hot, dusty or humid environment.

✤Do not allow foreign substances on the memory card terminals. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the terminals if required.

✤Use a memory card case to avoid losing data from moving and static electricity.

✤After a period of use, the memory card may get warm. This is normal and not a malfunction.

✤Damaged data may not be recovered, and SAMSUNG is not responsible for the lost data. Make sure to back up important files separately on a PC.

✤miniSD/RS-MMC cards must be inserted in a special card adapter in order to be used.

✤Be sure to insert miniSD/RS-MMC cards in the dedicated card adapter before use. Inserting a card in the Sports Camcorder without the adapter may damage the Sports Camcorder or the card.

✤Do not insert an empty card adapter in the Sports Camcorder. Do not leave the adapter in the

Sports Camcorder while inserting or removing miniSD/RS-MMC cards. This may cause the

Sports Camcorder to malfunction.

*1GB = 1,000,000,000bytes; actual formatted capacity may be less as the internal firmware uses a portion of the memory.
