•After you modify the name of a file or folder stored in the memory card using your PC, your camcorder may not recognise the modified file.

•It is recommended that you power off before inserting or removing the memory card to avoid data loss.

•It is not guaranteed that you can use a memory card formatted by other devices. Be sure to format your memory card using this camcorder.

•You have to format newly-purchased memory cards, memory cards with data that your camcorder cannot recognise or has been saved by other devices. Note that formatting erases all data on the memory card.
