Notes
Do not insert or remove the "Memory Stick" during

recording/playback. Doing so may cause a
malfunction of the recorder.
If you use a "Memory Stick" formatted with other

device than the recorder, you cannot record tracks
properly. Make sure to use a "Memory Stick"
formatted with the recorder.
The recorder is accessing memory while

"ACCESSING MEMORY..." appears on the display
or the ACCESS indicator flashes. During this time,
do not remove the "Memory Stick." Doing so may
damage the data.
Operations of a "Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo" and

"Memory Stick PRO Duo (High Speed)" of up to 4
GB are checked on the recorder, but this does not
guarantee operations of all series or models of
"Memory Stick." Because the Sony "Memory Stick"
is the only "Memory Stick" that has been
operationally tested on the recorder, "Memory Stick"
models of other makers may cause a malfunction.
