•Avoid directly touching the card’s electrical contacts (the gold section in
the card’s upper surface), and do not allow metal objects to come into
contact with the card’s contacts.
•Keep memory cards away from strong magnetic fields such as those
produced by loudspeakers and television receivers.
•Do not attach anything but the approved labels to memory cards, and
make sure that labels are attached in the proper spaces provided.
To prevent accidental erasure of important data, memory cards can
be write-protected by attaching the supplied write-protect seal to the circu-
lar area just below the card’s contacts (see illustration below).
To save data to a memory card that has been write protected, you
will have to remove the write-protect seal (the seal cannot be re-used once
it has been removed — use a fresh seal if you want to write-protect the
card again).
For maximum data security it is a good idea to keep two copies of
important data on separate memory cards. Keep one card in a safe place as
a backup in case the other is lost or damaged.
