•Take care not to touch the SmartMedia™’s electrodes (metal contacts) or allow the electrodes to become soiled. Use a dry lint-free cloth to wipe away any dirt.

•To avoid damage caused by static electricity during transportation or storage, always use the special static-free case provided.

•If you are not using the camera for a long period of time, remove the SmartMedia™ and store it in a safe place.

•Inserting a SmartMedia™ that is charged with static electricity into your camera may cause it to malfunction. If this occurs, switch the camera OFF and then ON again.

•The SmartMedia™ may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after the camera is used for a long time. This is normal and not a malfunction.

•The SmartMedia™ has a limited service life. If images can no longer be written or erased, buy a new SmartMedia™.

•Use the index labels provided with the camera. If you attach a commercially available label, it may cause a malfunction when the SmartMedia™ is loaded or removed.
