Cautions for Touch Screen OperationsSince the LCD monitor is not pressure  sensitive, do not use any sharp 
objects, such as your fingernail or a ballpoint pen, for touch operations.
 Do not use wet fingers for touch screen operations.
 If the LCD monitor has any moisture or  if your fingers are wet, the touch 
screen may not respond or misoperation may occur. In such a case, turn 
off the power and wipe the LCD monitor with a cloth.
 Do not attach any protective sheet (c ommercially available) or sticker on 
the LCD monitor. It may make the touch operation response slow.
 If you quickly perform touch operation when [ Sensitive] is set, the touch 
response may be slower.

The card is new.
 The card was formatted by a different camera or a computer.
 The card is full with images or data.
 A card-related error is displayed  (p.382).
Execute [Format card] in the following cases:
Low-level FormattingPerform low-level formatting if the card’s recording or reading speed seems 
slow or if you want to totally erase data on the card.
 Since low-level formatting will format all recordable sectors on the card, the 
formatting will take slightly longer than normal formatting.
 You can stop the low-level formatting by selecting [ Cancel]. Even in this 
case, normal formatting will be completed and you can use the card as 
usual.
 When the card is formatted or data is erased, only the file management 
information is changed. The actual dat a is not completely erased. Be 
aware of this when selling or discarding the card. When discarding the 
card, execute low-level formatting or destroy the card physically to 
prevent the personal data from being leaked.
 Before using a new Eye-Fi card, the software on the card must be 
installed on your computer. Then format the card with the camera.
The card capacity displayed on the card format screen may be smaller 
than the capacity indicated on the card.
