Notes on Formatting Memory/Card
During formatting, do not turn the camera off or remove the battery or memory card.
Format new memory cards with the Format option before recording pictures on them.
Shooting and deleting pictures repeatedly without regular formatting reduces the performance
of memory cards. We recommend formatting memory cards regularly to maintain their perfor-
mance.
Format is not available when the battery level is low.
You can select the language for menus and messages displayed on the mon-
