Initializing the miniature card
When recording on a new card, be sure to first initialize the card.
* The Konica Miniature Card (Model number: MC-2M) has been initialized at time of shipment from the
factory for use with the Q-EZ camera. You can use the card without initializing it.
Caution
• If you initialize a miniature card that has already been used for photography, all the images
recorded on the card will be erased.
Be careful not to erase important images.
• It is only possible to initialize a card that is not write-protected.
