on the CompactFlash card.

Formatting a CompactFlash card
(initializing)
When you format a CompactFlash card, all data on that card
will be erased.
1.
While holding down [CANCEL], press [REMAIN].
BANK [C/G]–[F/J] will blink, and the display will
indicate "FMt."
2.
Press any one of the BANK [C/F]–[F/J] buttons.
BANK [C/F]–[F/J] will change from blinking to lit, and
[DEL] will blink.
If you decide not to format the card, press [CANCEL].
3.
Press [DEL].
[DEL] will light, and formatting will begin.
During the formatting process, the dot in the display will
blink.
When the blinking stops, formatting is complete.
Never turn off the power while the dot is blinking. Doing so
may damage the CompactFlash card, rendering it unusable.
Don't modify or delete the files or folders that are created
when a CompactFlash card is formatted. The SP-555 will not
recognize the card correctly if you do so.
