Memory Card Handling Precautions
UJ •
Memory cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do not bend
. them, apply force to them, or subject them to shocks or vibration.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the memory card.
• Do not allow dirt, water or foreign objects to contact the terminals on
the back of the card. Do not touch the terminals with your hands or
metal objects.
I
• Do not peel away the original label on the memory card or cover it with
another label or sticker.
• When writing on the memory card, use a soft point pen (e.g. felt-tip
I
pen). Using a sharp point pen (e.g. ball-point pen) or pencil may
damage the memory card or corrupt the recorded data.
• Since some or all of the data recorded on the memory card may be
corrupted or erased by electrical noise, static electricity or card
malfunction, making a backup copy of important data is
recommended.
• Moving a memory card rapidly between temperature extremes will
cause condensation to form in the card and lead to a malfunction. To
avoid condensation, place the memory card in a sealed plastic bag
before moving it into a different temperature zone and allow it to adjust
slowly to the new temperature.
• If condensation forms on the memory card, store it at room
temperature until the water droplets have evaporated naturally.
• Do not use or store memory cards in the following locations.
- Locations subject to dust or sand
- Locations subject to high humidity and high temperatures
