Note
- Operation with all memory cards is not assured.

- To ensure stable operation of the memory card, we recommend that you use this camera to format any memory card being used with this camera for the first time.
- Note that formatting will erase all data recorded on the memory card. This data cannot be restored.
- Be sure to back up any important data to a computer or other storage location.
- Do not insert anything other than the compliant size of memory card into the memory card slot. Otherwise, a malfunction may result.
- When inserting or ejecting the memory card, be careful to prevent the memory card from popping out and dropping.
- Before you start recording, make a trial recording to make sure that the camera is working correctly.
- Turning off the camera or removing the memory card while the REC/Access lamp is lit may cause a malfunction of the memory card. Be sure to back up any important data to a computer or other storage locations.
- Check the following when using.
- That the terminal cover, memory card and battery pack cover are securely closed
- That any foreign matter is not pinched in any of the covers
If any of the covers are not securely closed or any foreign matter gets inside any of the covers, it may result in water entering the inside of the camera.
