About CF Cards

CF cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do not bend, apply force to, or subject them to shocks or vibration.

Do not attempt to disassemble or alter a CF card.

Moving a CF card rapidly between temperature extremes will cause condensation to form in the card and may lead to a malfunction. To avoid condensation, place the CF card into a sealed plastic bag before moving it into a different temperature zone and allow it to adjust slowly to the new temperature. If condensation forms on the CF card, put it aside until the water droplets have evaporated completely.

Place the CF card in the supplied case for storage.

Do not use or store CF cards in the following types of location.

-Locations subject to strong magnetic fields

-Locations subject to dust or sand

-Locations subject to high humidity and high temperatures
