Appendix MultiMediaCard Improper handling of the MultiMediaCard may cause damage to the card or images on the card. Follow the instructions below for correct use. Label • Do not peel off the label or paste any paper, tape, or other material over it. Watch out for static electricity • Do not let dirt or other foreign matter accumulate on the card contacts, or touch them with your fingers, or rub or scrape them. Static electricity may damage (erase) data on the card. Clean the card by wiping it gently with a soft, dry cloth. • Carry and store the card in its original plastic case to protect it from dirt, grime and static electricity. (The polyethylene case is antistatic.) Contacts • This is the part of the card that makes contact with other equipment. Do not touch with your fingers, scratch, smudge or damage in any way. Precautions on handling MultiMediaCards • Be sure to insert the card in the correct direction. Do not try to force the card in. • The card is a precision component. Do not disassemble or modify it in any way. Take care not to bend it, subject it to severe shock, drop it, or allow it to get wet. • Do not put the card in your pocket or other unprotected location as it may break due to pressure applied when you sit. • Do not expose the card to excessive heat or fire. Do not use or store the MultiMediaCard in the following kinds of environment: • Locations subject to electrical noise or powerful magnetic fields. Data on the card may be destroyed (erased). • Locations exposed to direct sunlight. • Locations subject to high temperature or high humidity. • Locations where dust gathers in large amounts or blows through the air. • Corrosive environments. • Sunlit or enclosed spaces and other such locations subject to high temperature. Watch out for condensation • Moisture (condensation) may form inside and outside the card if it is carried into an area subject to sudden, large changes in temperature. Watch out for condensation, because it can cause malfunctions. • When moisture condenses on the card, leave it at the prevailing temperature until the water evaporates naturally. Your image data • It is best to copy your valuable image data from the card onto some other medium (personal computer, floppy disk, MO disk, etc.) and make a backup. Malfunction, repair, and so on can cause the recorded images to disappear from the card. • Make absolutely sure not to remove the card or turn the camcorder power off while the card is recording data, erasing data, or formatting (initializing). This can cause loss of data and damage the card. • Initializing the card will erase the data on it. Make sure no important image data is recorded on the card before you initialize it. • Please be aware that Sharp Corporation will not be liable for any damages resulting from loss of data caused by incorrect handling of the card by you or a third party, or caused by exposure to static electricity or electrical noise or by malfunction.
