Your camera comes with approximately 16MB of built-in fl ash memory for storing pictures/video clips. You can expand the memory using a commercially available SD card. The camera senses whether a memory card is inserted, and automatically saves pictures accordingly. Note that you cannot save pictures to built-in fl ash memory while a memory card is installed in the camera.

IMPORTANT!

•Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or removing a memory card.

•Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting it. Never try to force a memory card into the slot when you feel resistance.

•SD memory cards have a write protect switch, which you can use to protect against accidental deletion of picture data. “Whenever you want to record, format or delete item in the SD Card, you must disable write protection.”
