■Image Memory Card

hThis Image Memory Card is a new image recording media (xD-Picture Card) developed for digital cameras. The Image Memory Card consists of a semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash memory) to record digital image data.

The recording process is electrically performed and enables erasure of existing image data as well as rerecording of new image data.

h When using a new Memory Card, or a Memory Card that has been formatted by a PC, be sure to format the card with your digital camera before using it.

■Microdrives

Microdrives are compact, lightweight hard disk drives that conform to the CF+ Type II standard. Due to their ample

There are two types of xD-Picture Card:

standard type and Type M (containing “M” in the model number, such as DPC-M1GB).

FinePix S9100/ FinePix S9600 is compatible with Type M, however they may no be compatible depending on the device used (Image Memory Card Reader, etc.).

■Using Microdrive

h Do not use hard-pointed pens to write on the Microdrive label.

h Do not peel off the Microdrive label.

h Do not stick additional labels onto a Microdrive.

h When carrying or storing a Microdrive, keep it in the protective case provided.

capacity for large image data files and their low per- megabyte recording cost, Microdrives provide a more economical way to save high-resolution image files.

■Protecting Your Data

h Images and movies may be lost or destroyed in the following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or destroyed.

1.Removal of the memory card or turning the power off while the memory card is being accessed (i.e., during record, erase, initialization, and playback operations).

2.Improper handling and use of the memory card by the

user or third party.

h Save your important data to another media (i.e., MO disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).

■Handling Media (all types)

h When inserting the media into the camera, hold the media straight as you push it in.

h Never remove the media or turn the camera off during data recording or erasing (media formatting) as this could be damaged to the media.

h Do not bend, drop or otherwise subject the media to strong force or shocks.

h Do not use or store these media in places with affected by strong static electricity or electrical noise.

h Do not use or store media in hot humid places or in places where they are exposed to corrosive substances.

■Handling xD-Picture Card

h When storing xD-Picture Cards, make sure that they are kept out of the reach of children. An xD-Picture Card could be swallowed cause suffocation. If a child swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek medical attention or call emergency number right away.

h Do not expose an xD-Picture Card to shock. Do not apply pressure, and avoid bending.

hDo not use the xD-Picture Card in a hot or humid place.

h Clean the xD-Picture Card with a soft dry piece of cloth when dirty.

h When a Microdrive is used, vibration or impacts during image data recording may prevent the image data from being recorded correctly. Put the camera down carefully when placing it on a desk or table, etc.

h Do not use Microdrive in CF+ Type II slots that do not have an eject function.

h Take care when handling Microdrive that have been used for long periods as they may become hot.

h Do not place Microdrives close to strong magnetic fields. h Keep Microdrive dry.

h Do not apply strong pressure to the Microdrive cover.

■Using Compact Flash

Contact the CompactFlash card manufacturer for information on the CompactFlash functions, operation details and system requirements.

Card types approved for use with the FinePix S9100 / FinePix S9600 are listed on the FUJIFILM website. http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital/

h The CompactFlash card may be hot immediately after being used in the camera and should be handled with care.

h Do not touch the card contact area with your fingers or metal objects.

h Unused CompactFlash cards should be formatted before being used.

■Using media with a PC

h When taking pictures using a media that has been used on a PC, reformat the media using your camera for best quality.

h When formatting a media, a directory (folder) is created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.

h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file names on the media because this will make it impossible to use the media in your camera.

h Always use the camera to erase image data on a media. h To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC and

edit the copy.
