Formatting a recording media [Format]

NOTE

• Never format the voice recorder from

a PC.

• Formatting erases all the existing data,

including locked files and read-only

files.

• When the SD card is set to write-

protected, [SD Card Protected] is

displayed. To perform formatting,

cancel SD card write protection

(☞P.19).

• When an SD card is inserted in the

recorder, be sure to confirm which

recording media is to be formatted,

[Internal memory] or [SD card], so

there is no mistake (☞P.71).

• Before formatting, charge or replace

the battery to ensure it will not run

out before the process is finished. The

formatting process can sometimes

take over 10 seconds to complete. To

prevent the risk of damage to data,

never attempt to perform any of the

following processes before a formatting

process has finished: Doing so may

damage the data.

1 Disconnecting the USB-connection

AC adapter.

2 Removing the battery.

3 Removing the SD card (if the

recording media has been set to

[SD card]).

• Even when formatting or erasing

(☞P.46) is performed, only the

file management information of the

internal memory and/or SD card is

updated and the recorded data is not

completely erased. When disposing of

an SD card, be sure to destroy the card,

format the card and record silence until

the recording time runs out, or perform

a similar operation in order to prevent

the leakage of personal information.
