Pentax Optio S60 Guia Do Utilizador

1

Very occasionally, malfunction of the camera may cause data stored in the built-in 
memory to become unreadable. As a backup measure, we recommend that you 
download important data to a PC or store the data in a media other than the built-in 
memory.

• Make sure that the camera is turned off before opening or closing the card 

cover.

• The SD Memory Card is equipped with a write-protect switch. 

Setting the switch to [LOCK] protects the existing data by 
prohibiting recording of new data, deletion of existing data or 
formatting of the card.

• Care should be taken if you remove the SD Memory Card immediately after 

using the camera, as the card may be hot.

• Do not remove the SD Memory Card or turn the camera off while data is being 

recorded on the card, images or voice memos are being played back, or the 
camera is connected to a PC with the USB cable  as this may cause the data 
to be lost or the card to be damaged.

• Do not bend the SD Memory Card or subject it to violent impact. Keep it away 

from water and store away from high temperature.

• Do not remove the SD Memory Card during formatting  as this may damage 

the card and render it unusable.

• The data on the SD Memory Card may be deleted in the following 

circumstances. PENTAX does not accept any liability for data that is deleted
(1) when the SD Memory Card is mishandled by the user.
(2) when the SD Memory Card is exposed to static electricity or electrical 

interference.

(3) when the card has not been used for a long time.
(4) when the card is ejected, the AC adapter is disconnected or the batteries 

are removed while the data on the card is being recorded or accessed.

• The SD Memory Card has a limited service life. If it is not used for a long time, 

the data on the card may become unreadable. Be sure to regularly make a 
backup of important data on a PC.

• Avoid using or storing the card where it may be exposed to static electricity or 

electrical interference.

• Avoid using or storing the card in direct sunlight or where it may be exposed 

to rapid changes in temperature or to condensation.

• When using an SD Memory Card with a slow recording speed, recording may 

stop while you are taking movies even when there is adequate space in the 
memory, or shooting and playback may take a long time.

• For information on compatible memory cards, visit the PENTAX website or
