Important SD Card Information
Micro SD cards MUST be inserted properly or damage may occur. SD Cards in
these devices are spring loaded. To insert the SD card, push the card into the slot
until a click is heard or felt. Once the card clicks it will lock into place. To remove
the card, press the card inward to unlock the spring and the card will come out.
NEVER FORCE AN SD CARD IN OR OUT!
Micro SD cards are available in different speed classes. For video recording, the
micro SD card MUST be Class 10 or UHS-1 or higher. The Class can be determined
by locating a small symbol on the label side of the card.
