Write-protect SmartMedia
A write-protect seal (supplied with SmartMedia card)
can be attached to a SmartMedia card to guard
against accidental recording, erasing, and formatting.
Attach the write-protect seal to the write-protect area
to prevent valuable data from being erased
accidentally.
Remove the write-protect seal before recording or
erasing.
Notes
• Attach the write-protect seal to the write-protect area
carefully, without letting the seal stick out, lift, or peel.
• Do not use commercial seals.
• Write-protect seals cannot be reused.
• A dirty write-protect seal may disable the write-protect
feature. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• A SmartMedia card with a write-protect seal attached to it
may not be write-protected when using the card with other
products.
