This camera uses a memory card (CompactFlash cards) for
image memory.
Use the procedure below to insert the memory card into the
camera before you try to use it for the first time.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure that the power of the camera is turned off

before you insert or remove a memory card.

• The power/card access lamp flashes green while the

memory card is being accessed. Never remove the
memory card while the power/card access lamp is
flashing.

• When inserting a memory card into the camera, make

sure that the card is oriented correctly. Make sure that
the correct side of the card is facing up, and that you
insert the correct end of the card into the camera.

IMPORTANT!

• Insert only memory cards into the memory card slot.

Inserting any other type of card can cause malfunc-
tion.

• Should water or any other foreign matter get into the

memory card slot, immediately turn off power, unplug
the AC adaptor, and contact your original retailer or
nearest CASIO Service Provider.

• Never eject the CompactFlash card while the card slot

is facing downwards. Doing so creates the danger of
the CompactFlash card falling, which can corrupt im-
age data on the card.
