Preparing SD cards for use
To use a new SD card with this unit, it is necessary 
to format it first. SD cards formatted by the unit are 
divided into MTR partitions and FAT partitions. SD 
cards with high capacities can be formatted with 
multiple partitions.
For more information about partitions see “11 – SD 
NOTE
The included SD card is already formatted so 
formatting is not necessary. If you format this card 
the demo song on it will be erased.
1.  The first time you insert a new SD card in this 
unit, the following pop-up message prompting 
you to format it appears.
NOTE
The pop-up message prompting you to format it 
also appears if you insert an SD card that has been 
formatted by any device other than this unit.
CAUTION
If you format it, all data saved by the other device 
will be erased and you will not be able to recover 
it.
2.  Press the F3 [YES] button to format the SD card 
with the standard number of partitions for the 
card capacity.
 
The Home Screen appears after the format 
completes correctly.
NOTE

To cancel formatting press the F4 [NO] button.

setting can be changed in some cases. To do so,
