Setting the HOLD switch to the HOLD position.

If you set the recorder to HOLD status by sliding the HOLD switch in the direction of the arrow, the current conditions will be preserved, and all buttons and switches except the HOLD switch will be disabled. This feature is useful when the recorder has to be carried in a bag or pocket.

Remember to reset the HOLD switch when using the recorder.

Notes

•The display will flash if the switch is moved to hold in the stop status. At this time, if any button is pressed the clock display will flash for about 2 seconds, but will not operate.

•If the switch is moved to hold during playback (or recording), the playback (recording) status will stay and cannot be operated.

(When playback has ended and the recording has ended due the remaining memory being used up, it will be in the stop state.)

•The alarm will sound at the scheduled time even if the recorder is set to hold. The recorder begins to play the file associated with the alarm when you press any button.

•Recording will start when the set time of the timer recording comes even while in hold.
