Checking Recording Media Information [Memory Info.]; Checking Voice Recorder Information [System Info.] - Olympus WS-853 User Manual

Device menu [Device Menu]
NOTE
• Never format the voice recorder from
a PC.
• Formatting erases all the existing data,
including locked files and read-only
files.
• Before formatting, charge or replace
the battery to ensure it will not run
out before the process is finished. The
formatting process can sometimes
take over 10 seconds to complete. To
prevent the risk of damage to data,
never attempt to perform any of the
following processes before a formatting
process has finished:
1 Removing the battery
2 Removing the microSD card (if the
recording media to be initialized is
a [microSD card]).
• If there is a microSD card in the voice
recorder, make sure [Internal memory]
or [microSD card] has been correctly
selected as the recording media to
erase (☞ P.52).
• Even when formatting or erasing
(☞ P.38) is performed, only the
file management information of the
internal memory and/or microSD card
is updated and the recorded data is not
completely erased.
When disposing of a microSD card,
be sure to destroy the card, format
the card and record silence until the
recording time runs out, or perform a
similar operation in order to prevent
the leakage of personal information.
