Formatting the Recorder (FORMAT)

If you format the recorder, all function settings will return to their defaults*. All files** stored in the recorder will be deleted.

If you have important files that you want to save, connect the recorder to a computer and transfer those files from the recorder to the computer before formatting the device. (☞ P.55)

*Date and time settings won't be cleared, so you won’t need to set them again.
