•  Never format the voice recorder from 

a PC. 

•  Formatting erases all the existing data, 

including locked files and read-only 
files. 

•  Before formatting, replace the battery 

to ensure it will not run out before the 
process has finished. The formatting 
process can sometimes take over 10 
seconds to complete. To prevent the 
risk of damage to data, never attempt 
to perform any of the following 
processes before a formatting process 
has finished: 

1 Removing the battery

2 Removing the microSD card (if the 

recording media to be initialized is 
a [microSD card]) (VN-733PC and 
VN-732PC models only).

VN-733PC and VN-732PC models only:
•  If there is a microSD card in the voice 

recorder, make sure [Internal memory] 
or [microSD card] has been correctly 
selected as the recording media to 
erase (

☞ P.46).

•  Even when formatting or erasing 

(

☞ P.32) is performed, only the 

file management information of the 
internal memory and/or microSD card 
is updated and the recorded data is not 
completely erased.
When disposing of a microSD card, 
be sure to destroy the card, format 
the card and record silence until the 
recording time runs out, or perform a 
similar operation in order to prevent 
the leakage of personal information.

You can display the capacity and remaining 
memory space of the recording media from a 
menu screen.

•  Some recording media memory 

capacity is used as a management 
area, so the actual usable capacity 
will always be slightly less than the 
displayed capacity. 

You can display voice recorder information 
from a menu screen.

•  The voice recorder’s [Model], [Version] 

(system version) and [Serial No.] 
information is displayed.
