About “Memory 
Stick” media

What is “Memory Stick”?

“Memory Stick” is a compact-size IC 
recording media with a high capacity. It has 
been designed not only exchanging/sharing 
digital data among “Memory Stick” 
compliant products, but also for serving as a 
removable external storage media that can 
save data.

Notes on “Memory Stick” 

On formatting (initialization)

If you format media in which data has been 
already written, all the data will be erased. 
Please be cautious not to mistakenly erase 
any important data.

Please make sure to format (initialize) a 
media by the formatter of a “Memory 
Stick” compliant product. If it is initialized 
with Windows Explorer, a FORMAT 
ERROR occurs, it might become unusable 
on this product.

About the size of “Memory Stick”

This product has a slot that can take both 
standard size and Duo size. All the products 
with such a slot as this are equipped with a 
system which automatically measures the 
size of an inserted media. That’s why both 
standard-size “Memory Stick” media and 
smaller “Memory Stick Duo” media can be 
used on this product without any Memory 
Stick Duo Adaptor.

Do not insert two or more pieces of media 
at the same time. It might cause damage to 
the product.

When you use “Memory Stick Duo” media 
and “Memory Stick Micro” media on this 
product, please make sure to insert it in the 
right direction.

“Memory Stick Duo” media and “Memory 
Stick Micro” media should be kept away 
from small children to prevent them from 
accidentally swallowing it.
