Cautions when handling the cards
i
The cards are precision devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject them to
strong forces or shocks.
i
Avoid using or storing the cards in places with extremely high or low tem-
peratures, subject to direct sunlight, in a completely closed vehicle, near
air conditioners or heaters, or in humid or dusty locations.
i
Avoid using or storing the cards in locations where strong static electrical
charges or electrical noise can be easily generated.
i
Do not allow the edges of the cards to become contaminated with foreign
materials. Gently wipe away any contamination with a soft, dry cloth.
i
Do not carry the cards in trouser pockets, as the cards may become dam-
aged when you sit down or make other movements that may apply forces.
i
Before using a new card or a card that was used in other equipment, be
sure to format it using the digital camera (see “FORMATTING A CARD” on
page 151).
i
When buying commercially available products, carefully read the instruc-
tions and warnings that come with the card.
