MEMORY CARDS
E-39
• Formatting is recommended for any memory card that you
suspect contains corrupted image data (due to a DE-
CODE ERROR, strange image colors, malformed images)
or newly purchased memory cards.
• Before starting a format operation, connect the AC
adapter to power the camera. Interruption of camera
power during the format operation results in improper for-
matting, making it impossible to use the memory card.
IBM Microdrive Precautions
Compatibility of the camera with the IBM microdrive has
been confirmed by CASIO. However, you should note the
following important points whenever using the IBM
microdrive.
• Be sure to carefully read all of the documentation that
comes with the microdrive before using it.
• Note that the microdrive becomes hot during normal use.
Take care when removing it from the camera.
• Take care to avoid strong pressure on the label side of the
microdrive when it is removed from the camera. Strong
pressure can damage internal components and cause mal-
function.
• Never remove the battery, unplug the AC adapter, or sub-
ject the camera to impact while the Power/Function lamp or
Operation lamp is flashing. Doing so can cause malfunc-
tion of the microdrive.
• The microdrive is a very high precision device. Dropping
the camera can result in malfunction of the microdrive,
even though the camera is undamaged. Take extra care
when handling the camera while the microdrive is installed.
• The microdrive has very large storage capacity. Because
of this, certain operations can take a relatively long time to
perform.
• The microdrive may not operate properly in areas where
barometric pressure is low. Because of this, you should
avoid using it at high altitudes.
• When battery power is low, the amount of time required
between shots may become longer. This longer interval is
designed to protect the microdrive.
In case of microdrive malfunction....
• Contact your original microdrive retailer or the contact
point noted in the microdrive documentation.
• CASIO does not provide any servicing or maintenance
support for the microdrive.
• Note that CASIO assume no responsibility for any data
loss you may suffer while using the microdrive.
