1.
If you will be initializing USB memory, connect the USB memory to the
external memory connector (p. 22).
If you will be initializing a floppy disk, connect your floppy disk drive to
the external memory connector, and insert the disk into the drive.
2.
Hold down the [Brilliance] button and press the [3D] button.
The display will indicate "Fnc," and you'll be in Function mode.

3.
Hold down the [Int Song/Ext Song] button and use the [-] [+] buttons to
make the display indicate "FMt."
When you take your finger off the button, a screen in which you can select the memory that you
want to initialize will appear.

Once an initialization is performed, all songs that have been saved in memory will be
erased. The erased data cannot be recovered, so we recommend that you check the
contents of memory before you proceed.
In order to use new USB memory or a new floppy disk with the DP-990 for the first
time, you'll need to initialize (format) it. USB memory or a floppy disk that has not been
initialized can't be used with the DP-990.
For details on handling USB memory, refer to "Using External Memory" (p. 22).
