Settings for Recording
When you insert a CF card, the CD-2 determines if it can use
the card in its current state. If the message “Not CD-2 Format”
appears, the CF card will have to be formatted before it can be
used with the CD-2.
NOTE
Never turn off the power or remove the CF card while
formatting is being carried out. Doing so may destroy
the data on the CF card or render the CF card unusable.
Formatting a CF card erases all data currently residing
on the card.
MEMO
The included CF card has already been formatted.
If the CF card has already been formatted on the CD-2,
you don’t need to format it again. Simply continue using
it.
