p We recommend using ERASE FORMAT when formatting
microSD cards the first time they are used with this unit.
p After formatting completes successfully, the LAUNCHER
(app selection) screen will open.
CAUTION
Formatting will erase all data on a microSD card.
Back up to a computer, for example before formatting a
card.
NOTE
i Formatting can also be executed using the GENERAL

(see "GENERAL SETTINGS screen" on page 15)
i Using the ERASE FORMAT option might improve writing
performance that has decreased due to repeated use.
If "Write error REC continue" or "Card slow Check BOF
MARK" appears during recording, format the card using
the ERASE FORMAT option.
i ERASE FORMAT checks the memory for errors while
formatting, so it takes more time than QUICK FORMAT.
