Notes
•It is recommended that you use the AC power adaptor for long recordings.
•When you record in LP4 mode, momentary noise may be produced on very rare occasions with certain sound sources.

If noise is produced, it is recommended that you record in normal stereo or LP2 mode to obtain better sound quality.
