Maximizing Camera Life and Performance Memory Cards • Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See "Approved Memory Cards" (A 21) for more information about memory cards. • Be sure to follow the precautions described in the documentation included with the memory card. • Do not put labels or stickers on memory cards. • We recommend using the camera to format memory cards that have never been used with the camera. Before using a memory card that was previously used in another device, be sure to use this camera to format the memory card. • Note that formatting permanently deletes all images and other data on the memory card. Be sure to make copies of any pictures you wish to keep before formatting the memory card. • If the message Card is not formatted. Format card? is displayed when the camera is turned on, the memory card must be formatted. If there is data that you do not want to delete, select No. Copy the necessary date to a computer, etc. If you want to format the card, select Yes. The confirmation dialog will be displayed. To start formatting, press the k button. • Do not perform the following during formatting, while data is being written to or deleted from the memory card, or during data transfer to a computer. Failure to observe this precaution could result in the loss of data or in damage to the camera or memory card: - Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover to remove/insert the battery or memory card. - Turn off the camera - Disconnect the AC adapter • Do not format the memory card using a computer.
