recording media (xD-Picture Card) developed for
digital cameras. The Image Memory Card consists
of a semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash
memory) to record digital image data.
The recording process is electrically performed
and enables erasure of existing image data as well
as re-recording of new image data.

h When using a new Memory Card, or a Memory

Card that has been formatted by a PC, be sure to
format the card with your digital camera before
using it.

■ Internal memory

h Images held in the camera’s internal memory may

be corrupted or erased due to problems such as
camera faults. 

Save your important data to another

media (i.e., MO disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).

h Data stored in the camera’s internal memory cannot

be guaranteed in the event that the camera is
submitted for repairs.

h When the camera is repaired, any data stored in the

camera’s internal memory is subject to checking by
the repairer.

■ Protecting Your Data

h Images and movies may be lost or destroyed in the

following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM
assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or
destroyed.
1. Removal of the memory card or turning the power

off while the memory card or internal memory is
being accessed (i.e., during record, erase,
initialization, and playback operations).

2. Improper handling and use of the memory card or

internal memory by the user or third party. 

h Save your important data to another media (i.e., MO

disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).

■ Handling xD-Picture Card

h When storing xD-Picture Cards, make sure that

they are kept out of the reach of children. An xD-
Picture Card could be swallowed cause suffocation.
If a child swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek
medical attention or call emergency number right
away.

h When inserting the xD-Picture Card into the

camera, hold the xD-Picture Card straight as you
push it in.

h Do not expose an xD-Picture Card to shock. Do not

apply pressure, and avoid bending.

h Do not use or store xD-Picture Card in hot and

humid places.

h Clean the xD-Picture Card with a soft dry piece of

cloth when dirty.

h When carrying or storing an xD-Picture Card, keep

it in the special protective case.

h The xD-Picture Card will work well for long time, but

will sooner or later lose its ability to store and play
back images or movies. If this happens replace it
with a new xD-Picture Card.

h Never remove the xD-Picture Card or turn the

camera off during data recording or erasing (xD-
Picture Card formatting) as this could be damaged
to the xD-Picture Card.

h The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with

FinePix F470.
The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when
xD-Picture Cards other than those manufactured by
FUJIFILM are used.

h The  xD-Picture Card may feel warm when it is

removed from the camera after taking pictures. This
is normal.

h Do not put labels on the xD-Picture Card. Peeling

labels can cause the camera not to work properly.

■ Using  xD-Picture Card or internal

h When taking pictures using an xD-Picture Card or

internal memory that has been used on a PC,
reformat the xD-Picture Card or internal memory
using your camera for best quality.

h When formatting an xD-Picture Card or internal

memory, a directory (folder) is created. Image data
is then recorded in this directory

h Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file

names on the xD-Picture Card or internal memory
because this will make it impossible to use the xD-
Picture Card or internal memory in your camera.

h Always use the camera to erase image data on an

xD-Picture Card or internal memory.

h To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC

and edit the copy.
