• Throughout the rest of this document, the SD card and an
SDHC card are simply called SD cards.
• Icom recommends that you format all SD cards to be used
with the transceiver, even preformatted SD cards for PCs or
other uses.
Saving the factory default data is recommended. Insert the
card into the transceiver's slot, and then touch [MENU].

period of time.
• The SD card has a certain lifetime, so data reading or writ-

lifetime has ended. In this case, purchase a new one. We
recommend you make a backup file of the important data
onto your PC.

data corruption of an SD card.
