Using Floppy Disks
You can use the KR’s disk drive to save songs to floppy disks and listen to
commercial music files.
Inserting and Ejecting a Floppy Disk
Inserting a floppy disk
1.
With the front of the floppy disk facing up, insert the floppy disk in the
disk drive slot until there is an audible click.
fig.diskdrive.e
Removing a floppy disk
2.
Press the Eject button.
The end of the floppy disk comes out of the slot. Grasp the edge of the floppy disk
and gently pull it out.
Formatting Floppy Disks (Format)
A newly purchased floppy disk, or a floppy disk that has been used by another
device cannot be used as is. Such floppy disks must be “formatted” (initialized) for
use with the KR.
If a floppy disk is in a format that doesn’t match the format of this unit, you won’t be
able to use that floppy disk.
fig.panel4-3
First make sure that the protect tab of the floppy disk is in the “Write (write enable)”
position.
fig.DiskProtect.e
If you’re using the disk drive
for the first time, be sure to
read the important notes on
p. 6.
NOTE
Never remove the floppy
disk while it is being read or
written. Doing so will scratch
the magnetic surface of the
floppy disk, making it
unusable. (The disk drive
indicator will light brightly
while data is being read or
written. Normally, it will be lit
dimly or will be dark.)

NOTE
When a floppy disk is
initialized, all of the data
saved on the floppy disk is
erased. If you’re formatting a
used floppy disk for reuse,
be sure to check first to
make sure the floppy disk
doesn’t contain any data you
don’t want to lose.
