• The above list does not guarantee the card’s perfor-
mance.
• Through the rest of this document, the SD card and
an SDHC card are simply called SD cards.
• Icom recommends that you format all SD cards to be
used with the IC-7100, even preformatted SD cards
for PCs or other uses.
NOTE:
• Read the instructions of the SD card thoroughly be-
fore use.
•
NEVER
remove the SD card, detach the battery
pack/case, or power OFF the transceiver, while
reading or writing data to or from the SD card, or
during cloning. It will cause the data to be corrupted
or damage the card.
•
NEVER
drop, impact or apply vibration to the SD
card. This will cause the data to be corrupted or
damage the card.
• The SD card will get warm if used continuously for a
long period of time.
• An SD card has a certain lifetime, so data reading
or writing may not be possible when using it over a
long time period.
• When reading or writing data is impossible, the SD
card’s lifetime has ended. In this case, purchase a
new one. We recommend you make a backup fi le of
the important data onto your PC.
• Icom will not be responsible for any damage caused
by data corruption of an SD card.
Saving the factory default data is recommended.
Insert the card into the transceiver’s slot, and then
➥
push
SET
(
