The digital camera comes with 32 MB of internal memory (approx. 26 MB for image

that you can store more files.

2. Insert the SD memory card in the correct

orientation shown.

J

Hold the SD memory card with its front
side of the SD memory card (printed arrow)
facing the rear side of the camera, and
then insert the card as far as it can go.

3. Close the battery/SD memory card cover.

Removing the SD memory card

Open the battery/SD memory card cover, press lightly on the edge of the SD memory
card and it will eject.

J

To prevent valuable data from being
accidentally erased from an SD memory  card
you can slide the write-protected tab (on
the side of the SD memory card) to  “LOCK”.

J

To save, edit or erase data on an SD
memory card, you must unlock the card.
