• If you purchase additional memory cards, format them with the camcorder, not

with a PC or other device do not function properly.
• We recommend saving backups of memory card images on your PC’s hard
drive or other external memory device. Image data may be damaged or lost due
to a defect in a memory card, or if a memory card is exposed to static
electricity. Contents of a memory card cannot be compensated for should data
become damaged or lost.
• Do not remove the power source or the memory card while the card access
indicator flashes.
• Do not use memory cards in places subject to strong magnetic fields.
