To initialize the flash memory

If “FLASH ERR” appears in the display, there is an error in the data in the built-in flash memory. In this case, connect the Network Walkman to your computer and initialize the flash memory using the OpenMG Jukebox software. Once you begin initializing the memory of Network Walkman, do not disconnect the USB cable until initialization is completed.

Disconnecting the USB cable during initialization may destroy the data in the flash memory. For details about initializing, refer to the online help for the OpenMG Jukebox software.

Note

If “FLASH ERR” appears even after initializing the flash memory, please contact an authorized Sony service center.
