• If you select "Erase All Memory", you can delete the following: user codes, counters under each user
code, user stamps, data stored in the Address Book, applications using Embedded Software
Architecture, and the machine's network settings.
• If the main power switch is turned off before "Erase All Memory" is completed, overwriting will be
stopped and data will be left on the hard disk. Do not stop the overwrite mid-process. Doing so will
damage the hard disk.
• Other than pausing, no operations are possible during the "Erase All Memory" process. If [Random
Numbers] is specified and the number of overwrites set to "3", the erase process will take up to two
and a half hours.
• The "Erase All Memory" function also clears the machine's security settings, with the result that
afterward, neither machine nor user administration will be effective. Ensure that users do not save any
data on the machine after "Erase All Memory" has completed.
