    In general, the data writing speed of the SD 
    memory card reduces when recording and 
    deletion are repeated. In this case, 
    recording may stop in the middle while you 
    are recording motion pictures. We 
    recommend you to clean up the card using 
    the camera before recording motion 
    pictures.

     [CLEAN UP] is a function to recover the 
    speed of writing into a free space in the 
    card. Therefore, pictures and data already 
    recorded in the card will not be erased.
     When you start clean-up, it may take time 
    to complete.
     Depending on the type of card, 
    [CLEAN UP] may not be effective.
     [CLEAN UP] does not support 
    MultiMediaCard.
     During clean-up do not turn the camera off. When you clean up the card, use a battery 
    with sufficient battery power (P13) or AC 
    adaptor (DMW-CAC1; optional).
     When the SD Memory Card Write-Protect 
    switch is slid to [LOCK], you cannot clean 
    up the card.
    1Select [YES] to format.
     Usually, it is not necessary to format the 
    card. Format it when the message 
    [MEMORY CARD ERROR] appears.
     If the card has been formatted by a PC or 
    other equipment, format it on the camera 
    again.
     Once the card is formatted, all data 
    including protected images are 
    irretrievably erased. Please confirm 
    that all data is transferred to your PC 
    before proceeding with format 
    function.
     During formatting, do not turn the camera 
    off.
     When you format the card, use a battery 
    with sufficient battery power (P13) or AC 
    adaptor (DMW-CAC1; optional).
     When the SD Memory Card Write-Protect 
    switch is slid to [LOCK], you cannot format
