■ Formatting a Memory Card
Before you can use a memory card with your camera, you must
format it.
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 perform the following procedure on the camera
to format the memory card.
1. Press [ON/OFF] to turn on the camera.
2. Press [MENU].
3. Use [W] and [X] to select the “Set Up” tab.
4. Use [T] to select “Format” and then press [X].
5. Press [S] to select “Format” and then press
[SET].
• To cancel formatting, select “Cancel” and then press
[SET].
Wait until the “Busy... Please wait...” message disappears
from the monitor screen before doing anything else.
