• Do not remove an SD Memory Card while it is being formatted. This may damage the card and make it unusable.

•Formatting deletes protected images and any data recorded on the card with a computer or any camera.

•SD Memory Cards formatted on a computer or device other than this camera cannot be used. Be sure to format the card with the camera.

•To format the built-in memory, be sure to eject the SD Memory Card beforehand. Otherwise, the SD Memory Card will be formatted.
