6. Controls and functions

„ Preventing accidental erasure
„
Some USB memory drives offer a write-protect feature
which prevents accidental data erasure. If you save
important data on a USB memory drive, we recommend
using the drive's write-protect feature to protect your data
from being erased. Conversely, make sure the drive's
write-protect feature is turned off before trying to save
data to the drive.
NOTE
The ACCESS indicator is displayed in the upper right of the
screen while data is being accessed (read, written, erased,
etc.). While this indicator is displayed, do not turn off the unit or
disconnect the USB memory drive. The unit, the drive, and data
stored on the drive could become damaged.
