ZProtecting Your Data

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.
CAUTION
Save your important data to another media (i.e., MO disk,
CD-R, hard disk, etc.).
ZHandling Memory card (all types)
• When inserting the memory card into the camera, hold
the memory card straight as you push it in.
• Never remove the memory card or turn the camera off
during data recording or erasing (memory card
formatting) as this could be damaged to the memory
card.
• Do not bend, drop or otherwise subject the memory card
to strong force or shocks.
• Do not use or store these memory card in places with
affected by strong static electricity or electrical noise.

• The CompactFlash card may be hot immediately after
being used in the camera and should be handled with
care.
• Do not touch the card contact area with your fingers or
metal objects.
• Unused CompactFlash cards should be formatted
before being used.
ZUsing memory card with a PC
• When taking pictures using a memory card that has
been used on a PC, reformat the memory card using
your camera for best quality.
• When formatting a memory card, a directory (folder) is
created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.
• Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file
names on the memory card because this will make it
impossible to use the memory card in your camera.
• Always use the camera to erase image data on a
memory card.
• To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC and
edit the copy.
• Do not copy files other than those that will be used by
the camera.
