When a card is not inserted, you can format the built-in memory. When a card is inserted, you can format the card.

If you press [MENU/SET] while formatting the built-in memory, the formatting will stop halfway. (However, all the pictures will be deleted.)

Once the card is formatted, all data including protected images are irretrievably erased. Please confirm that all data is transferred to your PC before proceeding with format function.

If the card has been formatted on a PC or other equipment, format it on the camera again.

Use batteries with sufficient power (P24) or the AC adaptor (DMW-AC6; optional) when formatting.

During formatting, do not turn the camera off.

It may take longer to format the built-in memory than the card. (Max. about 15 sec.)
