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.
• 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.
