CARD SETUP

Cards must be formatted. Formatting prepares cards to receive data. OLYMPUS
brand-formatted cards are highly recommended. If you are going to use non-
OLYMPUS cards or cards formatted by other devices such as a computer, you must
format them with the camera before use. Cards can be formatted in all mode dial
positions.
