delete all the files in the selected folder at once.

Press the ENTER/MARK button to delete the file and the ¤

(HOME) [8] button to cancel deletion.

You cannot erase read-only files and files that are not

recognized by this unit.

FOLDER DELETE

delete the selected folder.

Press the ENTER/MARK button to delete the folder or press

the ¤ (HOME) [8] button to cancel deletion.

NOTE

You cannot erase folders than contain read-only files and

files that are not recognized by this unit.

Creating a new folder

NEW FOLDER appears at the bottom of each folder list.

Select (highlight) NEW FOLDER, and press the ENTER/MARK

or / button. A pop-up appears to confirm that you want

to create a new folder.

Press the ENTER/MARK button to create a new folder or

press the ¤ (HOME) [8] button to cancel.

Since this unit supports only a two-level folder structure, the

NEW FOLDER function is not available in second-level folders.

A newly created folder becomes the current folder (currently

selected folder), and recorded files are saved in this folder. If

the playback area has been set to FOLDER, this folder becomes

the playback area.
