4. Formatting
Under normal use, it is not usually necessary to format the built-in flash memory since it is format-
ted before shipment from the factory.
To restore the memory to its original condition, follow the procedure below to format the memory.

ᕃ

In the Stop mode, press the Up/Down control on the MENU switch or press the MENU switch
once (for less than 2 seconds) to display the menu on the LCD panel.

ᕄ

Press the Up/Down control on the MENU switch to display the Formatting (Warning) menu
([FORM] is displayed together with a blinking [YES?]).

ᕅ

Press the MENU switch within 4 seconds. The memory will be formatted, the LCD panel will
display [OK] and the recorder will enter the Stop mode. The formatting mode is canceled if the
STOP button is pressed or if no operation is performed for 4 seconds after the formatting dis-
play starts blinking.

Remember that formatting erases all data (including recorded voice data, time/date and ID
number data) in memory. Be careful.

HOLD

Setting the HOLD switch

to the HOLD (upper) position locks the recorder in the current mode. All

operation buttons are disabled. This is convenient when carrying the recorder in a bag or pocket since
it prevents any operational errors due that could be caused by the accidental press of a button.

When the HOLD switch is set to the HOLD (upper) position in the Stop mode, the LCD will go out

and the recorder will enter the Standby mode.
