Use micro SD cards only with micro SD enabled host devices.
Handling a memory card
Damaged data may not be recoverable. We recommend you make a back-
up of important data separately on the hard disk of your PC.
Turning the power off or removing a memory card during an operation such
as formatting, deleting, recording, and playback may cause data loss.
If you modify the name of a file or folder stored in the memory card with your
PC, your product may not recognise the modified file.
The micro memory card does not support any data recovery mode.
Therefore, care should be taken in case the memory card is damaged while
recording.
We recommend that you power off the product before inserting or removing
the memory card to avoid data loss.
Make sure to format the memory card on this product. If the memory card
had been formatted by a PC or other device, using it on this product without
reformatting may cause recording and/or playback failure. Samsung is
not responsible for damage to recorded contents caused by incompatible
formatting.
You have to format newly-purchased memory cards, memory cards with
data that your product cannot recognise or with data saved by other
devices. Note that formatting erases all data on the memory card and
deleted data cannot be recovered.
A memory card has a certain life span. If you cannot record new data, you
have to purchase a new memory card.
Do not bend, drop, or subject the card to strong impacts.
Do not place foreign substances on the memory card terminals. Use a soft
dry cloth to clean the terminals if required.
Do not paste anything other than the label provided with the card on the
label pasting area of the card.
Do not use a damaged memory card.
Be careful to keep the memory card out of the reach of children, who might
swallow it.
