Format
The formatting of a User C-CARD must be done before using a new User C-CARD: this operation
prepares the User C-CARD to receive and store information. Before you start the formatting procedure,
insert a new User C-CARD into the slot. Be sure to label it; the label will remind you that you have
formatted the User C-CARD, and will help you identify its contents. A used User C-CARD can also be

CARD will be completely deleted.
