Attention
• SmartMedia cards are precision devices. Never
force the cards when inserting them, or subject
them to sharp blows.
• Avoid handling and storing SmartMedia cards
in a hot, damp environment.
• Do not touch the contact area (gold
electrodes) of the SmartMedia card with bare
hands.
If a SmartMedia card gets dirty, wipe it with a soft,
dry cloth.
• SmartMedia cards may be vulnerable to
electrostatic data corruption. When carrying a
SmartMedia card, put it in its case.
Remember to back up data from SmartMedia cards
to a PC or other storage medium from time to time
(

• Corrupted, lost, or erased data cannot be restored.
