• If the main power switch is turned to [Off] before Auto Erase Memory is completed, overwriting will
stop and data will be left on the hard disk.
• Do not stop the overwrite mid-process. Doing so will damage the hard disk.
• Should the main power of the machine be turned off before overwriting is completed, the temporary
data will remain on the hard disk until the main power is next turned on and overwriting is resumed.
• If an error occurs before overwriting is completed, turn off the main power. Turn it on, and then repeat
from step 1.
• If you specify to both overwrite and encrypt the data, the data will all be encrypted.
