Instructions on how to use the memory card
å If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the re-
corded data may become corrupted :
- When the memory card is used incorrectly.
- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while
recording, deleting (formatting) or reading.
å Samsung cannot be held responsible for lost data.
å It is advisable to copy important data onto other media as back-up
e.g. floppy disks, hard disks, CD etc.
å If there is insufficient memory available :
A [Memory Full] message will appear and the camera will not
operate. To optimise the amount of memory in the camera, replace
the memory card or delete unnecessary images stored on the
memory card.
å Don't remove the memory card when the camera status lamp is
blinking as this may cause damage to data in the memory card.
å Be sure to format the memory card (see p.52) if you are using a
newly purchased memory card for the first time, if it contains data
that the camera cannot recognise, or if it contains images captured
with a different camera.
å Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being
inserted or removed.
å Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the mem-
ory card’s performance. Should this be the case, you will need to
purchase a new memory card. Wear and tear on the memory card
is not covered by the Samsung warranty.
å The memory card is an electronic precision device.
Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy
impact.
å Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong
electronic or magnetic fields, e.g. near loud speakers or TV receiv-
ers.
å Please do not use or store in an environment where there are
extremes in temperature.
å Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into con-
tact with any liquid. Should this happen, clean the memory card
with a soft cloth.
å Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.
å During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the
memory card is warm. This is perfectly normal.
å Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera.
To use the memory card in this camera, format the memory card
