See page 20 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a
memory card.
1.
Before opening the memory card/terminal cover, carefully wipe any
sand or moisture from the camera to ensure that none of it gets inside
the camera.
2.
Replace the memory card.
Press the memory card and then release it. This will
cause it to pop out of the memory card slot slightly.
Pull the card out the rest of the way and then insert
another one.
• Never remove a card from the camera while the
back lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the
image save operation to fail and even damage the
memory card.
IMPORTANT!
• Never open the memory card/terminal cover in an area where water is present.
Doing so creates the risk of water getting inside the camera, resulting in
unrepairable damage.

Using a Memory Card
• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during image playback, you can
restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 147). However, it is
recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards whenever using
the camera far away from the home or office.
• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it
loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory
card is recommended.
• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to
become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data
on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).
