¶Memory cards are precision electronic devices. Do not bend or drop them, or subject them to strong forces or impacts. Also, avoid using or storing memory cards in environments subject to static electricity or electrical noise.
¶Memory cards can be broken when subjected to impacts or static electricity. Be very careful when handling them, and make regular backups of important recorded data (☞ P. 45).
