3. Turning the power off

Make sure that operations such as song playback or recording are completed, and turn off the power by fol- lowing the power-on procedure in reverse.

Before you power-off, you must press the [STOP] key to save the song to the card.

Turn the volume of all connected devices to the minimum setting, and turn off each power switch in order, beginning with the last device that receives the audio signal.

Never turn off the power when the card access icon is dis- played. Doing so will destroy not only the selected song, but may also destroy the songs on the card as well as the Smart- Media itself.
