Storing pictures on an optional SD or SDHC Card
Your camera has internal memory. We recommend purchasing an SD or SDHC Card to
conveniently store more pictures/videos.
CAUTION:
A card can only be inserted one way; forcing it may cause damage.
Inserting or removing a card while the camera is on may damage the
pictures, the card, or the camera.
IMPORTANT:
When you turn on the camera, it checks to see if a card is inserted. If so, new
pictures/videos are stored on the card. If no card is inserted, new pictures/videos are stored
in the camera internal memory. If pictures/videos are detected in internal memory and a
card is inserted, the camera prompts you to move the pictures to the card (and erase those
in internal memory).

Using the camera under water
The camera does not float. To prevent it from sinking, secure it with the wrist strap
(see a floating wrist strap at www.kodak.com/go/accessories). To keep the camera
waterproof, tightly close and latch all doors. Do not open doors in water or
when hands are wet. Waterproof integrity may be compromised if the camera is
dropped.

non-underwater setting.
After using the camera in water
Wipe off water or debris. If the camera was used in chemically treated water or
saltwater, rinse it in fresh water, then use a soft towel to dry it.
If water has entered the camera, remove the card. Allow all components to air-dry
for at least 24 hours before using the camera. See page 46.
