Instructions on how to use the memory card  
Maintenance of the memory card  
Be sure to format the memory card (see p.86) if you are using a newly purchased memory for  
the first time, if it contains data that the camera cannot recognise, or if it contains images  
captured with a different camera.  
Turn off the camera power whenever the memory card is being inserted or removed.  
Repeated use of the memory card will eventually reduce the memory card’s performance.  
Should this be the case, you will need to purchase a new memory card.  
Wear and tear on the memory card is not covered by the Samsung warranty.  
The memory card is an electronic precision device.  
Do not bend, drop or subject the memory card to any heavy impact.  
Do not store the memory card in an environment with strong electronic or magnetic fields,  
e.g. near loud speakers or TV receivers.  
Please do not use or store in an environment where there are extremes in temperature.  
Do not allow the memory card to become dirty or to come into contact with any liquid.  
Should this happen, clean the memory card with a soft cloth.  
Please keep the memory card in its case when not in use.  
During and after periods of extended use, you may notice that the memory card is warm.  
This is perfectly normal.  
Do not use a memory card that is used in another digital camera.  
To use the memory card in this camera, format first the memory card by using this camera.  
Do not use a memory card formatted by another digital camera or memory card reader.  
Preserving the memory card data  
If the memory card is subjected to any of the following, the recorded data may become  
corrupted :  
- When the memory card is used incorrectly.  
- If the power is switched off or the memory card is removed while recording, deleting  
(formatting) or reading.

If you cannot obtain suitable exposure conditions, you can change the metering method to  
take brighter pictures.  
[Multi] (

regardless of the back lighting.  
INFORMATION  
The default metering mode is Multi pattern metering.  
If the subject is not the centre of the focus area, do not use the spot metering as this may  
result in an exposure error. In this circumstance, It is better to use exposure  
compensation.

Important notes  
Be sure to observe the following precautions!  
This unit contains precision electronic components. Do not use or store this unit in the  
following locations.  
- Areas exposed to severe changes in temperature and humidity.  
- Areas exposed to dust and dirt.  
- Areas exposed to direct sunlight or the inside of a vehicle in hot weather.  
- Environments where there is high magnetism or excessive vibration.  
- Areas with high explosives or highly flammable materials.  
Do not leave this camera in places subject to dust, chemicals (like naphthalene and  
mothball), high temperature and high humidity.  
Keep this camera with silica gel in a hermetically sealed box when not planning to use the  
camera for a long period of time  
Sand can be particularly troublesome to cameras.  
- Do not let sand get inside the unit when using it on beaches, coastal dunes, or other areas  
where there is lots of sand.  
- Doing so may result in failure or may permanently render the unit unusable.  
Handling the camera  
- Never drop the camera or subject it to severe shocks or vibrations.  
- This camera is not waterproof.  
To avoid dangerous electrical shocks, never hold or operate the camera with wet hands.  
- If you use this camera in wet places, such as beach or pool, do not let water or sand get  
inside the camera. Doing so may result in failure or may permanently damage the unit.  
Extremes in temperature may cause problems.  
- If the camera is transferred from a cold to a warm and humid environment, condensation  
can form on the delicate electronic circuitry. If this occurs, turn the camera off and wait for at  
least 1 hour until all moisture is dispersed. Moisture build up can also occur in the memory  
card. If this happens, turn off the camera and remove the memory card. Wait until the  
moisture has dispersed.

Important notes  
Caution on Using the Lens  
- If the lens is subjected to direct sunlight, it could result in discoloration and deterioration of  
the image sensor.  
- Pay attention not to get fingerprints or foreign substances on the surface of the lens.  
If the digital camera is not used for a long period, an electric discharge can occur.  
It is a good idea to remove the batteries and the memory card if you do not intend using the  
camera for an extended period of time.  
If the camera is exposed to an electronic interference, it will turn itself off to protect the  
memory card.  
Camera Maintenance  
- Use a soft brush (available from photo stores) to gently clean the lens and LCD assemblies.  
If this does not work, lens-cleaning paper with lens cleaning fluid can be used.  
Clean the camera body with a soft cloth. Do not allow this camera to come into contact with  
solvent materials such as benzol, insecticide, thinners etc. This may damage the body shell  
of the camera and also affect its performance. Rough handling can damage the LCD  
monitor. Take care to avoid damage and keep the camera in its protective carry case at all  
times when not in use.  
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the camera.  
Under certain conditions, static electricity can cause the flash unit to fire. This is not harmful to  
the camera and is not a malfunction.  
When images are uploaded or downloaded(when the charger and USB cable are inserted  
into the cradle at the same time), the data transfer may be affected by static electricity.  
In this case, disconnect and re-connect the USB cable before trying the transfer again.  
Before an important event or going on a trip, you should check the camera condition.  
- Take a picture for testing the camera condition and prepare extra batteries.  
- Samsung cannot be held responsible for camera malfunctions.
