About Recording
Before starting recording, select a voice
recording folder between [&] to [*] in the
[Recorder] folder. These five folders can be
selectively used to distinguish the kind of
recording; for example, Folder [&] might
be used to store private information, while
Folder ['] might be dedicated to holding
business information.

light starts flashing. When the recording
