Although previously recorded movies 
will not be erased by recording new 
movies, a protect setting will ensure 
against accidental erasure and 
formatting. If the protect setting is 
activated, however, you will not be 
able to make new recordings until the 
protect setting is canceled.

Select “Yes”, then press the 
confirmation button.

• When using the HDD/BD-RE/

DVD-RAM/Card, formatting 
will start.

• When using a DVD-RW disc, a 

screen for prompting you to 
select the VF mode or VR mode 
will appear. See p.35.

* If you choose “VR mode” when 

formatting a DVD-RW (VR 
mode), finalization will not be 
canceled. All contents on the disc 
will be erased after being 
formatted and the disc will be a 
finalized DVD-RW (VR mode) 
and recordable.

If you choose “VF mode” above, 
finalization will be canceled. 

• Select “No” to quit formatting.

Notes
