Notes
• The time required to format cards differs depending on the capacity of cards. For example, formatting may take about 1 minute for 512 MB card. Do not interrupt the formatting process by opening the card cover or the battery cover. Doing so will damage the data or card.
• When the card is formatted, all the stored data, including locked files, are erased.
• If an unformatted card is inserted, the recorder automatically displays the format option in the menu.
