zDo not attempt to disassemble or alter the memory card.

zDo not allow dirt, water or foreign objects to contact the terminals on the back of the memory card. Do not touch the terminals with your hands or metal objects.

zDo not peel away the original label on the memory card or cover it with another label or sticker.

zWhen writing on the memory card, do not use a pencil or ballpoint pen. Only use a soft point pen (e.g. felt-tip pen).

zDo not use or store memory cards in the following locations.

• Locations subject to dust or sand

• Locations subject to high humidity and high temperatures
