Notes on SmartMedia™ Cards
• Recorded data may be erased (destroyed) in the situations listed below.
- When the SmartMedia™ card is used incorrectly by the user or a third party
- When the SmartMedia™ card is exposed to static electricity or electrical noise
- When the SmartMedia™ card is removed or the camera is then switched OFF during data
recording, data erasing, frame advance when images are being played back or during formatting
of the SmartMedia™ card.
• We recommend copying and saving important data onto another storage medium (floppy disk, hard
disk, MO disk, etc.).
• Never remove the SmartMedia™ card or switch the camera OFF during data recording or during data
erasing (SmartMedia™ card formatting). These actions might damage the SmartMedia™card.
• Use only the SmartMedia™ cards specified for use with the camera. The use of other SmartMedia™
cards could damage the camera.
• SmartMedia™ cards are precision electronic devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject SmartMedia™
cards to excessive shocks. Also, do not carry SmartMedia™ cards in locations such as a trouser
pocket. This might subject the SmartMedia™ card to excessive force when you sit down, damaging the
SmartMedia™ card.
• Do not use or store SmartMedia™ cards in environments likely to be affected by strong static electricity
or electrical noise.
• Do not use or store SmartMedia™ cards in very hot, humid or corrosive environments.
