Formatting an SD Card

“Formatting” is the process of preparing the SD card for use. If you’re using an SD card other than the included one, you must first format the SD card before it can be used with the R-05.

•You must format the SD card on the R-05 itself. An SD card formatted on a device other than the R-05 might not work correctly in the R-05.

•When you format an SD card, all data on the card will be erased.

•The included SD card has already been formatted. If you format it again, the included demo songs and the PDF file containing the owner’s manual will be erased. If necessary, use your computer to back up these files first.

1.Make sure that the SD card you want to format is inserted in the SD card slot.

“Inserting an SD Card” (p. 32)

2.Press [MENU] to access the “Menu” screen,

use [ ]/[ ] to select “SD Card,” and then press [ ].

If you decide to cancel without formatting, press [MENU]. You will return to the previous screen.
