To Format (Initialize) A New Memory Card - Casio Exilim EX-FC100 User Manual

To format (initialize) a new memory card

You need to format a new memory card before using it for the first time.
1.
Turn on the camera and press [MENU].
2.
On the "Set Up" tab, select "Format" and then press [6].
3.
Use [8] and [2] to select "Format" and then press [SET].
IMPORTANT!
• Formatting a memory card that already has snapshots or other files on it, will delete
its contents. Normally you do not need to format a memory card again. However, if
storing to a card has slowed down or if you notice any other abnormality, re-format
the card.
• Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card. Formatting a memory card on
a computer and then using it in the camera can slow down data processing by the
camera. In the case of an SD or SDHC memory card, formatting on a computer can
result in non-conformity with the SD format, causing problems with compatibility,
operation, etc.
• Before formatting a new Eye-Fi card to use it for the first time, copy the Eye-Fi
Manager install files to your computer. Do this before formatting the card.
