Displaying, editing and erasing your pictures
Initializing cards (Formatting)
• You should check the images on the card carefully before initializing the
card.
• Initialization erases all the data on the card, including protected images.
When you initialize a card you have already used, check that you do not
erase any important data.
• If you use a non-Olympus brand commercially available card or card that
has been formatted on a personal computer or other device, it may not be
recognized by the camera. In this case, the card should be initialized (for-
matted) on the camera before use.
• You cannot initialize a card that is protected by a write-protect sticker.
