recorder must be connected to a PC to 
erase these files and folders.
•  Before erasing a file or folder, charge or 
replace the battery to ensure it will not 
run out before the process has finished. 
Erasing processes can take over 10

risk of damage to data, never attempt 
to perform any of the following 
processes before an erasing process 
has finished : 
1 Disconnecting the AC adapter 
2 Removing the battery
3 Removing the microSD card (if the 
recording media has been set to 
[microSD card]).
