Cautions when using memory cards

•Avoid memory cards to very cold or very hot temperatures (below

0 °C/32 °F or above 40 °C/104 °F). Extreme temperatures can cause memory cards to malfunction.

•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 to 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.

•Transfer important data to other media, such as a hard disk, CD, or DVD.

•When you use the camera for an extended period, the memory card may become warm. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

•Use a memory card that meets the standard requirements.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any loss of data.
