Preparing an SD card for use
In order to use an SD card in this unit, you must format it first.
CAUTION
The included SD card is already formatted, so formatting
it is not necessary. Formatting the supplied SD card erases
the demo song previously stored.
1. Confirm that the SD card is loaded and turn the
power on.
2. A pop-up message "Invalid Card" appears when a
new SD card or an SD card formatted for use with
another device is installed in the unit.
3. You can also reformat a card in this unit at any time.
(See "Quick formatting an SD card" on page 78 and
"Full formatting an SD card" on page 79.)
To clear the pop-up message, press the F1 button.
