To avoid potential risk of data loss caused by accidental operation or malfunction
of the IC recorder, we recommend that you save a backup copy of your recorded
files to a computer, etc.
On using a memory card
When formatting (initializing) a memory card, make sure to use the IC recorder
to format it. Operations of the memory cards formatted with Windows or other
devices are not guaranteed.
If you format a memory card containing recorded data, the recorded data will
be deleted. Be careful not to delete important data.
Do not leave a memory card within the reach of small children. They might
accidentally swallow it.
Do not insert or remove a memory card during recording/playback/formatting.
Doing so may cause a malfunction of the IC recorder.
Do not remove a memory card while the "Accessing..." animation appears in
the display window or the indicator is flashing in orange. Doing so may damage
the data.
We do not guarantee the operations of all types of compatible memory cards
with the IC recorder.
For compatible M2™, please refer to the Sony website (See
websites").
"MagicGate™" is the collective name of content protection technologies
developed by Sony. The IC recorder does not support data recording/playback
that requires MagicGate™ functions.
The IC recorder does not support parallel data transfer.
You cannot use a ROM (read-only-memory) type or write-protected memory
card.
Data may be corrupted in the following cases:
When a memory card is removed or the IC recorder is turned off during a
read or write operation.
When a memory card is used in locations subject to static electricity or
electrical noise.
We assume no responsibility for any loss or damage of recorded data.
We recommend that you save a backup copy of the important data.
Do not touch the terminal of a memory card with your hand or a metal object.
Do not strike, bend or drop a memory card.
