About the Memory Cards
•
To handle Memory Cards with care:
There are times when static electricity affects Memory Cards. Before you handle Memory Cards, to reduce the
possibility of static electricity, touch the metal parts such as a door knob and aluminum sash.
Be sure to remove the Memory Card from the Memory Card slot when it is not in use for a long time.
Do not expose the Memory Card to direct sunlight, extremely high or low temperatures, or excessive humidity,
dust or liquids.
Do not place heavy objects on a Memory Card or bend or apply pressure to the Memory Card in any way.
Do not touch the metal part (gold) of the Memory Card or put any metallic plate onto the metal part.
Do not expose the Memory Card to magnetic fields, such as those produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc.,
since magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on the Memory Card, rendering it unreadable.
Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to a Memory Card. Also make sure that labels are attached
in the proper location.
•
To protect your data (Write-protect):
To prevent inadvertent erasure of important data, stick the write-protect seal (provided in the Memory Card pack-
age) onto the designated area (within a circle) of the Memory Card.
Conversely speaking, to save data on the Memory Card, make sure to remove the write-protect seal from the Card.
Do not reuse the seal that is peeled off.

Data Backup
For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that you keep two copies of important data on separate Mem-
ory Cards. This gives you a backup if one Memory Card is lost or damaged.
