Camera maintenance
Cautions when using memory cards • Insert a memory card in the correct direction. Inserting a memory
card in the wrong direction may damage your camera and memory
card.
• Do not use memory cards that have been formatted by other
cameras or by a computer. Reformat the memory card with your
camera.
• Turn off the camera when you insert or remove the memory card.
• Do not remove the memory card or turn off your camera while the
lamp is blinking, as this may damage your data.
• When the lifespan of a memory card has expired, you cannot store
any more photos on the card. Use a new memory card.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject memory cards with heavy impact or
pressure.
• Avoid using or storing memory cards near strong magnetic fields.
• Avoid using or keeping memory cards in areas with high
temperature, high humidity, or corrosive substances.
• Prevent memory cards from making contact with liquids, dirt, or
foreign substances. If dirty, wipe the memory card clean with a soft
cloth before you insert the memory card in your camera.
• Do not allow liquids, dirt, or foreign substances to come in contact
with memory cards or the memory card slot. Doing so may cause
memory cards or the camera to malfunction.
• When you carry a memory card, use a case to protect the card from
electrostatic discharges.
