Using your charger abroad
The charger can be used in most home electrical
sources within the range of 100 V to 240 V
AC (50/60Hz) around the world. However, AC
wall outlets are shaped differently in different
countries or regions. Therefore, the charger may
require a plug adapter to match your wall outlet.
For details, ask at your local electrical shop or
travel agent.
Do not use travel voltage converters as they
could damage your charger.
Using an xD-Picture Card
A card (and also internal memory) corresponds
to the film in a film camera. The recorded images
(data) can be erased, and they can be retouched
with the use of a computer. Cards can be removed
from the camera and exchanged, but it is not
possible to remove or exchange the internal
memory. Use of larger capacity cards enables you
to take more pictures.

Using a new card
Before using a non-Olympus card or a card that
was used for another purpose in a computer
or other device, use [MEMORY FORMAT]/
[FORMAT] (p. 37) to format the card.

Even if [MEMORY FORMAT]/[FORMAT],
[ERASE], [SEL. IMAGE], or [ALL ERASE]
is performed, the data in the card is not
completely erased. When disposing of
the card, damage the card to prevent the
disclosure of personal data.
Readout/recording process of the card
Never open the battery/card compartment
cover or unplug the USB cable while the
camera is reading or writing data, which is
indicated by blinking of the card access lamp.
This can not only damage the image data
but also render the internal memory or card
unusable.
