Initializing a Memory Card

Initialize new memory cards, or when you get the message "CARD ERROR". You can also initialize a memory card to erase all data recorded on it.

Initializing a memory card erases all data, including protected images and custom preset files. Images and custom preset files erased through the card initialization cannot be recovered. If you use a memory card other than the supplied one, initialize it with the camcorder.

1. Open the menu and select [CARD OPERATIONS].
   

2. Select [INITIALIZE].
   

3. Select [EXECUTE].
   

4. In the confirmation screen select [YES].
   - The card initialization starts.
