SD Memory Card and Card Slot Precautions

When using an SD memory card, make sure you observe all of the precautions in the instructions that come with it.

SD memory cards have a write-protect switch that you can use to protect against accidental deletion of data.

Avoid using an SD memory card under the following conditions. Such conditions can corrupt data stored on the memory card.

Areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity, and corrosive gasAreas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and digital noise

Never touch the contacts of an SD memory card when loading it or removing it from the Digital Keyboard.

While data is being stored to or recalled from an SD memory card, never perform any other Digital Keyboard operation or remove the SD memory card. Doing so can corrupt the data on the card and damage the card slot.

Never insert anything besides an SD memory card into the card slot. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.

Electrostatic charge discharging from your fingers or the SD memory card to the card slot can cause malfunction of the Digital Keyboard. If this happens, turn the Digital Keyboard off and then back on again.

An SD memory card can become quite warm after very long use in the SD memory card slot. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
