Precautions for using SD cards
z Do not insert anything into the camera.
• If anything other than an SD card is inserted into the SD card slot, it may cause a fire, electrical shock or
failure of the unit.
z Before turning the camera off or removing the SD card, be sure to set the SD card setting to [Disable].
() Page 9)
If you turn the camera off or remove the SD card while data is being written to the SD card, data stored on
the SD card becomes corrupt.
z If the data in an SD card becomes corrupt, it will be automatically repaired when the camera starts up. This
repair function enables the card to be written to again; it does not repair corrupted video data.
z If recording is still not possible after a data repair operation, the data has been damaged excessively.
Format the SD card again. In such a case, the recorded data becomes unplayable.
z Do not use or store SD cards in a place where they may be affected by static electricity or electrical noise.
z Insert the SD card in the correct direction. If you insert the SD card in the incorrect orientation, the camera
or the card may be damaged. () Page 3)
z Our company will not be liable for damages arising out of data loss due to an unexpected accident. (Please
save your data.) () Page 17 “Export menu”)
z Use this unit under the stated conditions of use. Do not use this unit in the following locations.
A location exposed to direct sunlight, near a heated appliance, inside a closed car in a sunny environment,
in a humid place, or a corrosive environment, etc.
z Do not bend or drop this unit, and do not subject this unit to strong impact or vibration.
z Do not moisten this unit with water.
z Do not touch the card connectors.
z If you format or delete data using the camera's functions, only the file management information is changed.
The data is not erased completely. If you wish to completely delete the data, use commercially available
data erasing software or physically destroy the SD card using a hammer or other device.
z If the SD card degrades, you may be unable to write to it. By reformatting the SD card, you may be able to
continue using it temporarily.
z Do not disassemble or modify the SD card.
z Do not let dust, dirt, liquid, or other foreign objects come into contact with the connectors.
z Do not peel the label off of the SD card, or attach any other label or sticker to the SD card. This may result
in damage.
z Do not use a pencil or ballpoint pen when writing on the SD card. Be sure to use an oil-based pen.
